I have compiled and run the Test_Fall3 program but did not noticed anything.
The memory leak seems to appear spuriously(not always), but the size of it is still 4 Kb/sec in the Task manager, even when GPS is idle.
When I minimize/maximize the GPS window, the used memory decreases but the virtual memory is left almost unchanged.
Since GPS is using GTK, and GTK has a loop, I would think that this loop is leaking.
But on Windows we cannot use Valgrind to check for memory leaks.
