It was school work. I rewrote it remembering to save frequently this time. I
installed the long term support version of LibreOffice hoping it wouldn't have
the bug. After using the LTS version for multiple days it seemed that the LTS
version still has the same memory leak as the latest release version.

I always have Task Manager open so I can monitor what my computer is doing.
Anyways I decided to take the time to reproduce the bug. Through
experimentation I discovered the actions causing memory to not be released. It
seems that zooming and or scrolling allocate small amounts of memory that are
never released. In addition selecting text causes small amounts of memory to be
allocated and never released. But biggest of all I found that the combination
of both selecting text and scrolling at the same time allocates large amounts
of memory that are never released. By repeatedly selecting text and scrolling
at the same time I am able to make the app crash due to running out of memory
in under a minute.

Although Rust and C/C++ are often used for the same purpose they are
fundamentally very different languages. I do know the very basics of C/C++
plus, but I'm definitely unqualified to dig through a massive C++ codebase

Although I have neither the time nor experience to pinpoint the bug I hope that
now that I've uncovered the specific action causing it that you will be able to
proceed with foreword with a fix for it.
