HI Andrew,
Most of that is not really memory leaks. Abi naturally grows as
you use it. Loading a document loads a massive grow buffer. Every action
is recorded and saved. Every attribute/property is recorded in a memory
heap as you load a document and use it. To say nothing of the actual text.
We make very heavy use of allocated memory....
Cheers
Martin
