Description bugreport 2002-03-23 14:50:52 UTC 
After using a aqua gtk-pixmap theme for two weeks I realized that it was
the cause for several X crashes.

While using the aqua pixmap theme the X server grows constantly bigger
while using gtk applications from it's orignal 80MB memory size to over 300MB.

I tried a few other pixmap engine related themes which all seem to have the
same problem.

The used theme here was:

Fixed (I hope) in the gtk-engines-0 branch in CVS. (Irrelevant in 
HEAD, which no longer contains this engine.) I have no immediate
plans to release a new gtk-engines tarball at this point.

        * pixmap-engine.c: Fix	pixmap resource leak when	pixmaps
        were rendered but not used, because there was no
        area that needed to be	drawn.
