Bug Report Possible Memory Leak - OBS 0.16.2 - Ubuntu 16.04

[Kevin Fischer]

I am running OBS with two different profiles each with a single scene (Media Source from 4k Axis camera) streaming at 1440p to YouTube and it's eating up memory like crazy. After 3 days of continuous live streaming, OBS ate up all 64GB of memory and used 32GB of swap! Surprisingly the server wasn't locked up and able to get a screenshot this time. Forgot to grab the logs, I'll add them tomorrow. Computer specs:
-Intel Xeon E5-1650v4 6 core
-64GB DDR4-2400
-512GB PCIe SSD
-Nvidia Quadro K1200

If you need more info let me know.

i am on ubuntu gnome 16.10 running OBS 0.16.2 (linux) and seeing this issue. I dont know if you have noticed but it seems to only start happening once one of the settings panels is opened. I was running a stream and game and after awhile reached 4.8gb of memory in use by obs.

okay so i just built from scratch to test, i was looking around and found several other bugs same exact thing. After building i found the issue was solved somewhere in the commit history.

after building i monitored the memory usage and it was consuming a constant 52mb on idle after opening settings, on last version it started at 82 and went up
