Summary: Memory leak in VB6 based program Product: Wine Version: 1.1.41 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: panton41@gmail.com
GURPS Character Assistant (see AppDB) shows a memory leak which causes it to use increasingly more memory until the program slows until it's unusable. The program start at using 32MB and adds around 1MB for every time an item is edited (which is the entire point of the application and can happen hundreds of times). Around 150MBs the program becomes too slow to be usable and begins to display non-fatal error messages.
Windows 7 64-bit shows a fairly consistent memory use of around 28MB.
I'm too infrequent of a user to tell if its a regression or an entirely new bug. I switch between Linux and Windows often and there's sometimes months in between using the app on Wine. I have a feeling it's a regression, however, since I don't recall an increasing slow-down during my previous use.
It uses riched20, riched32 and oleaut32 as native, builtin with font smoothing set to RGB if that helps connect it to other bugs at all.

To many overrides actually, generally you should start with builtins only - does it leak without any overrides?
If it does you could run under valgrind probably.

It doesn't run at all without the overrides. Without native riched20 and oleaut32 it won't even load fully and crash. Without native riched32 the sheets won't render properly. The font smoothing is purely cosmetic, but substantially improves usability.
