Johan,
Is it possible that the issue is with the win32 devlibs?
Cheers, Josh

Hi all, A colleague today found Inkscape later than 0.48.2 unusable because of a huge memleak. He was using it in 16-bit (remote desktop). We found that on Windows 7, Inkscape 0.48.4 and trunk are unusable because of very rapidly increasing memory usage it quits because of no more available memory. Steps to reproduce:
- set Windows color-depth to 16-bit
- start Inkscape
- zoom in and out repeatedly (mousewheel)
- watch the used memory increase very rapidly in the task manager
Might be easy to fix this, perhaps some of the blitting/display code assumes a 32-bit buffer?
I've added it to the know issues for 0.48.4 and 0.49. (I remember that earlier versions of Inkscape would not even start when using 16-bit colordepth.)
Thanks for looking into it! Cheers, Johan
