You said you won't load valgrind. Now you'll have to wait until  
someone else reproduces your situation WITH valgrind in order to give  
the devs something to start with.

You're the first. If you can't provide the devs with the information  
they request, you have to wait patiently until someone else runs  
across the problem and can provide the information required to  
investigate.

If this were a corporate software company, the Quality Assurance team  
would replicate your environment as closely as possible and run  
valgrind to see where the memory leak is. This is open source. There  
is no QA department. We are all QA and you're the only one with your  
environment that is causing the issue.
