The TestFile does remove its data from the DUChain when it is destroyed. So 
what you describe above sounds as if the TestFiles are leaked? If so, then 
this is the problem. Which is odd, as the TestFile's are stored in a 
QSharedPointer and should thus be freed properly, no?

So please debug this and ensure the TestFiles get deleted _and_ that the data 
they created is removed from the DUChain at that point.
