With just one emacs frame the GDI object count stays stable, but the moment I open another frame, the GDI count balloons up very quickly. j Jeremy Tan wrote: > I don't know if this is related to the problems that people are > experiencing with local copies of emacs but I'm seeing a GDI object > leak with remote invocations of emacs that are routed back to my X > server. > > Basically, I run cygwin/XFree86 on my local workstation, and I start > an emacs on a Unix server that is displayed on my X server here. > When using emacs, everytime I open a file, I can see that the XWin.exe > processes gains a few GDI objects, but killing that buffer in emacs > doesn't free them.
