Memory leak when using thumbnails on large numbers of images like jpegs.

Basically Everything will keep allocating memory when it reads thumbnails from large numbers of images until a malloc error occurs, then the program just exits.

x86 or x64 Everything?

1342 Crash - OOM

You say "Memory leak", but then also, "keep allocating memory when it reads thumbnails from large numbers of images until a malloc error occurs".

To me (at least), those are different things.

x64. Basically it's not freeing memory the size of everything.exe and memory usage grows to 26GB (I got 32BG installed) so its definitely related to the program not deallocating memory.
