I'm experiencing ever-increasing memory usage in my application and I think 
I've isolated at least part of it to node's zlib module.

This gist (https://gist.github.com/3071680#file_zlibtest.js) attempts to 
illustrate the issue.  Also included is the raw data for a run using zlib (
absolute.dat <https://gist.github.com/3071680#file_absolute.dat>), and for 
a run without (nozlib.dat <https://gist.github.com/3071680#file_nozlib.dat>) 
as well as a gnuplot script 
(memusage.p<https://gist.github.com/3071680#file_memusage.p>) 
for generating a graph of the data.

These tests were done on arch linux with node v0.8.1 (git tag) built with 
gcc 4.7.1

Can anyone confirm there is an issue?  Should I be using zlib in a 
different way?
