While fixing something else, I happened to stumble across a way to solve
this problem. In your update command below, change it to
ImageView.view(canvas(canv1), img, interactive=false)
Somehow, creating the callbacks is preventing memory from being freed
properly.
For this to work, you'll have to do Pkg.update() first.
Sorry it took so long to track this down.
