Yes, the way GIMP uses GLIB's memory allocation needs to be reviewed. This problem was reported before in https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=759874 (re-assigned to GEGL, though I believe this is really a GIMP problem). Try running GIMP thus: export MALLOC_MMAP_MAX_=200000 export MALLOC_MMAP_THRESHOLD_=128*1024 gimp-2.9 ....
Thanks! that does seem to fix the problem of GIMP not releasing the memory for closed images.
