You do not need to wait for the full run. If its grown to, say, 200
MB, you can stop it. A few snapshots (e.g. every tenth one, basically
first, last and a 10 in the middle) would be helpful to know what is
causing the memory rise. Also attach the log file when you do - if its
size is withing attachable limit (then attach the first 2000 lines or
so).

I am hoping to find something in those log files. Joe is the one
around here who is well versed in the black magic of heap-snapshots. I
am familiar with heap-buddy but they are not suitable in this
situation. Your snapshots would be a good lesson of heap-shotism for
me :-).

You might delete the older ones - since you started the new run with
better (read: worse for your computer) performance.
