Depends on your point of view.
You have to somehow call GNATCOLL.SQL.Exec.Free (Database_Connection)
if you properly want to release the memory. Or you can setup valgrind
so that it ignores this "leak" (not really a leak, just some memory
that is automatically freed when the process goes away, but memory
usage does not grow up as your program lives).
