Comment (by leavengood):
waddlesplash had pointed me to the leak analyzer and that was the first
thing I tried, but the guarded heap does not see any leaks in media_client
and the only leak it sees in MediaPlayer is related to something minor in
the Application Kit.
So whatever is collecting all this memory is properly freed on program
exit.
I can definitely look at the streaming code to not have an infinite stream
but this also seems to happen in MediaPlayer just going through a playlist
consisting of the same short mp3 file, though I think the memory increase
is not nearly as fast as with streaming.
I have not tried running MediaPlayer with the playlist using the new
periodic dumping I added to the debug heap. But I will so I can see if it
does the same build up of memory and then dropping down again.
