I am using the Linux glib2 version downloaded from the VNC web site.  The
memory usage seems to be growing without bounds.  Initially it starts out at
about 6 or 7 meg.  Eventually it got up to about 78 meg (it probably would
have gone further - that's when I killed it).

Here's the startup log

As you can see this was started only a few days ago, and now the memory usage
is:
geoff    11094  2.9  7.1 38304 18492  ?  R   Sep  5 123:04 Xvnc :1 -desktop X
-h

38 Meg!

Has anyone else seen this?  I remember there used to be a memory leak problem
in the old version that was fixed.  It is possible that it's returned?
