this is exactly what i have been doing on linux (and Pd's memory 
consumption stayed at 1.7% for the first 15000 frames). so the problem 
is most likely os-x related.
still it would be nice to have a bit more info; e.g. how long do i have 
to wait before the crash is likely to occur (this is obviously related 
to the amout of memory; but since i don't want to spend 3 days waiting 
because only a few bytes are leaking rather than the entire image, it 
would be nice to know the number (and size) of frames you are using on 
your machine equipped with how many kilobytes of ram)
