[Scummvm-devel] Memory leaks

[yotam barnoy]

Hey guys

Testing out my latest work on the PSP, I came across a scary message in CoMI
one time saying that it was out of memory. On the PSP (and I'm sure on some
other platforms too), it's much easier to use the GMM to go back to the game
selection GUI than to quit and restart ScummVM. Anyway, after using a couple
of engines one after the other, I got this error message.

I don't really know the tools to do this measurement properly (other than
some hacks that could take a while), but using Process Explorer on Windows,
it seems like several of the engines are no longer cleaning up after
themselves properly. Scumm may be the worst offender (CoMI itself for
instance) but possibly also Teen Agent and some others.

I wonder if someone can do a better analysis than myself and possibly
confirm (or disprove) the results, and maybe even find the culprit(s)?
