Linux application crashes

I build a scaled version of a test stack and application and sent it to
support.

On my system this shows an increase of 1.2% to 1.4% in memory usage with
each click... so from a stress test perspective 70 clicks or less and the
application crashes. the memory continues to climb unless the application
is closed. There is also a button that removes all the images (ie start
clean) and the memory does not decrease or change.

So we will wait to hear from the support team.

I have tarred the folder and if anyone wants to try it (24.6 MB) then let
me know since I need to use an email address when sharing from google docs.
