  Memory Leak - bug report? A Question if this is the right newsgroup format

I've been testing out the new 3.5 version of POV-Ray
on my laptop that only has 192M RAM (Win98SE).

On a longer render, the memory usage profile has demonstrated some
of the classic symptoms of memory leak typical of C++ programs that
have dangling pointer problems when using dynamically allocated
memory in function calls.

As the render goes on:
1] reduced unused physical memory
2] increased page faults
3] increases swap file in use size
etc.

I have a scene-file to show anyone interested!

Thanks

-Ed
