Memory leak when resizing windows

Description

hrev55328

When an application's window is repeatedly resized, used memory slowly increases. I have tested several applications, not all of them have this problem. WebPositive, ActivityMonitor, DeskCalc and Terminal are affected. I have tested on Virtualbox and real hardware (both use VESA), both are affected. Closing the application frees the memory.

The video is a demonsration of the bug. The lag in the video is because of the overload of recording.

Reproducing:

  • Launch ActivityMonitor. Note down memory usage.
  • Repeatedly shrink and grow window of ActivityMonitor for a few seconds.
  • Check memory usage again, it should have increased.

Turns out this is a duplicate of the very old #3271.
