Leaks Mach ports

[kju]

Q v0.9.0d89 (and v0.9.0a89) running on Mac OS X 10.4.11. Guest is NetBSD 4.0, with no X11. If left running, the VSZ/RSS of process "i386-softmmu" continues to grow, as seen in the following:

bash$ while true; do vmmap 6616 | grep Mach | tail -1; sleep 10; done
Mach message            [   1464K]
Mach message            [   1628K]
Mach message            [   1792K]
Mach message            [   1956K]
Mach message            [   2116K]
Mach message            [   2280K]
Mach message            [   2444K]
Mach message            [   2608K]
Mach message            [   2772K]
Mach message            [   2936K]
Mach message            [   3100K]
Mach message            [   3264K]
Mach message            [   3428K]
Mach message            [   3592K]
Mach message            [   3756K]
Mach message            [   3920K]
Mach message            [   4084K]

This appears to amount to more than a gigabyte per day.

Drop me an email at stix@… if you want any further info.

I think this is related to the cpu meter. It should stop, if you remove the cpu meter from the toolbar.

It does, indeed. Thanks for the workaround!
