Comment (by aaron <memoryguy@…>):

 Okay, I was able to update and try the patch:

 The leak seems to be much improved, but I think it still leaks, as I still
 see the memory usage increasing. I thought it might be related to
 Timestretch, as I was watch *everything* at 1.3x or faster, and the higher
 the timestretch value, the faster it seems to leak. However, I tested
 today with playback left at 1x and I still saw the memory continue to
 increase.

 I will make a profile build and try to capture a valgrind log again. Might
 take me a couple of days, though.

 Thanks!
 aaron
