HUGE memory leak (26GB)

[.eb]

This image shows 22.5GB of memory in use for this file I was working.
Moments previous to the image; 26GB was the max, it stayed at 22.5GB  after this photo. 

• I saved the file to .afphoto format and closed AffPhoto.
• I re-opened AffPhoto and loaded the file. The memory used by AffPhoto was then at 320MB. 
Thus showing a 22.2+GB accumulated leak.

// FILE INFO:
• This file is a 1k x 1k pixel image...with a few dozen pixel layers that are just basic black and white boxes set to different opacities.
• I did not run/perform/request any special types of commands.
• I copy-pasted each box/layer

 I've been in software development, 3D Technical tool development and other areas of tech work for 17 years.

Hi @.eb,

Can you attach the afphoto file in question?

Thank you for the information about the FOLLOW Gabe.  I was frustrated and didn't want to spend time eye-filtering /searching how to "follow" yesterday.

I do NOT have the file revision that was saved during this memory leak.
I had re-saved over that file after I reloaded it.
Please be sure this is known as I don't want anyone thinking this is the file saved during the leak.
