KDevelop holding on to large chunks of memory

[Nick Savoiu]

I have a large custom project with 1000's of .cpp/.h files. If I delete the .pcs file to force a recomputation of it then the KDevelop session baloons to large amount of memory and then hangs on to them until closed.

For example, for my project

1. I delete the .pcs file
2. start KDevelop
3. load the project
4. wait till "Updating..." is done
5. check memory usage: 874MB
6. close KDevelop
7. start KDevelop

8. load the project

9. wait till "Updating..." is done

10. check memory usage: 160MB

Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Nick
