If you're able to try this with the 1.0.x SVN branch or the SVN trunk (plus my text patch) let me know. I am not able to reproduce any sort of memory leak with these newer versions, but I am able to with 1.0.0 as released (with or without my text patch). This is with or without the x axis limits updating you suggested. I believe there have been other memory leak fixes since the 1.0.0 release.
