Yes, the way GIMP uses GLIB's memory allocation needs to be reviewed.
This problem was reported before in
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=759874 (re-assigned to GEGL,
though I believe this is really a GIMP problem).
Try running GIMP thus:
export MALLOC_MMAP_MAX_=200000
export MALLOC_MMAP_THRESHOLD_=128*1024
gimp-2.9 ....
Thanks! that does seem to fix the problem of GIMP not releasing the
memory for closed images.
Best,
