Last week I was hunting the memory leaks with RefsHunter because the abnormal amount of Point instances in the object memory. 

FreeTypeCache cleanUp.
Clipboard startUp: true.
RubEditingState allInstances do: [ :each | each instVarNamed: #undoManager put:nil].
GTPlayBook reset.
EditorFindReplaceDialogWindow cleanUp.
ActiveHand resetClickState; releaseAllFocus.
UITheme current focusIndicator: nil.
40 timesRepeat: [
1 second wait.
World doOneCycle.
]. 

I will try to find the reason why they appear, not only how to kill them.

Cheers,

Hi!

It looks like that we are currently suffering memory leaks.
In march 2015 it was said in the mailing list:

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
I also tried this:

1. Create a dummy class:
Object subclass: #AAA
        instanceVariableNames: 'x'
        classVariableNames: ''
        category: 'AAA'.

2. Open a Playground and do it and go on this:
a := #AAA asClass new.

3. In the second pane go on "self"

4. Close the Playground

5. Execute:
3 timesRepeat: [ Smalltalk garbageCollect ].

6. Check:
#AAA asClass allInstances.

7. Repeat if necessary, and after a while, the result after step 6 is not empty.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

The problem is still present.
Looking at the pointers

There was an object reference crawler no? I remember someone worked on this? I tried sending #pointersTo but I without much success on identifying the cause of this leak.

Any idea?

Cheers,
Alexandre
