Package: clementine
Version: 1.3.1+git565-gd20c2244a+dfsg-1
Severity: normal
I'm not sure if this is a Clementine bug or a Gstreamer bug, but I've
noticed that when I leave Clementine running for a bit, its memory usage
grows massive (many GiB). I'm playing almost exlusively FLAC files,
which all have (fairly large) embedded artwork, multiple images per
file.
I used heaptrack to attempt to track down where the memory leak is. This
is after only a day or two of use:

I have no idea why that backtrace doesn't show any Clementine code in
it. I tried installing some more -dbg/-dbgsym packages, but maybe I had
to do it before starting Clementine.
Note this is the main clementine process, not the tagreader processes:
