Yup, that was definitely the problem. Streamed all night and is at close enough
the same memory usage this morning as it was when I went to bed! Thats terrific
:) So for future reference, don’t pass —verbose=1 to the startup arguments of
VLC unless you’re actually going to look at the output.
I think I figured out what was happening, It takes hours of running the stream
to make sure that it’s happening or if it's just going to build to some
equilibrium with the auto release pool at a new higher level. The version I
left running over night did stabilize and stopped adding memory,
