Nope, the leak was there, too, but it was for unknown reasons rather
insignificant - I could use my app on OS 9 for an hour without a
problem. Now, after about 5 minutes of use (doing actions), the app
will silently quit or even crash the entire system because it runs
out of mem (and because RB never accomplished to be safe in low-mem
situations), because it'll leak about 500-800 KB per action (and
one can do such actions every few seconds). So, even when assigning
much more mem to my app, it'll soon reach the physical RAM limits.
And on OS X and Windows it just brings the app to a crawl after a
while for all that VM swapping that takes place.

Well, I just vented. That helped to calm me down for a while. :)
