[TSVN] More memory leaks...

From: illiminable <ogg_at_illiminable.com>

If you remember, i was the guy who was getting massive memory leaks when
commiting from the way the libraries were loaded...

I've come across another situation where this happens... for the past few
weeks, well previously i thought it started when my repository switched from
svn+ssh to http, but in retrospect, this was also around teh time that i
upgraded tortoise svn from v1.0.0 to the latest version (1.0.6) at the time.
So i assume something changed in the code somewhere between then.

Anyway.... from around the same time, Visual Studio has been exhibiting the
same thing, though i'd kept putting it down to the code i was testing having
memory leaks in it and me crashing it doing stupid things all the time. But
today, i was starting to get annoyed with how slowly the directory change
was in visual studios directory boxes, so i went and turned off all icon
overlays, and it did make things nice and speedy... but i also noticed that
visual studio is no longer eating away all my ram and page file, which had
been causing me to shut it down and restart every hour or so.

So to test, i turned the icon overlays back on and kept an eye on the task
manager as i browsed a few directories in visual studio... and low and
behold... theres the memory leak... about 30 megs per directory change !

So i'm assuming a similar situation is occuring here with library loading.

Though what it is about my machine and setup that seems to make me the only
one, i've got no idea, but i'd really like to find out !

If you have any ideas or things you'd like me to test let me know.

Anyway it's no major problem, as if i turn icon overlays off it goes away.

Thanks,

Zen.
