I recently wrote an application which causes my X server (X.V10R4+update Xsun)
to grow in size.  The application basically loops with the following
construct:

	loop
		DestroySubwindows

		CreateWindows (over 32)

		MapSubwindows

	pool

If I remove the MapSubwindows then the server nolonger grows (but then my
application doesn't do anything interesting either...)
Ed James complained about memory bug on Jan 27 which I think he made occure
by using XMoveArea.  I am not sure if these two bugs are related.  Anyone
out there run accross this (and a fix)?  Oh, very few of the subwindows
overlap.

(In case you are curious, the application gives a graphical view of physical
 memory with a subwindow for each process on a CRAY 2. Yes, processes are
 contiguous in memory, no paging)

Oh yeah, The lawyers want me to say "CRAY is a registered trade mark of
Cray Research, Inc." or something like that.
