I'm working on an application that uses a js-scripted jit.gl.text3d object in the same pattern as the multi_text subpatch in the jit.gl.text2d help file to render a few hundred blocks of animated text to the output. I've found that my application leaks memory horribly (uses 2GB and crashes within a few minutes).

Upon further review, the multi_text subpatch in the help file actually leaks as well (with no js), just much more slowly because it's rendering only 8 blocks of text at only 10fps. If I change the patch to render 300 text blocks at 50fps it leaks at the same rate as my js version.

I'm developing on Windows but I've duplicated the issue on a Mac.

I've emailed C74 support, but does anyone have any suggestions in the meantime?

I'll attach my modified version of the patch from the help file.
