I have identified a weird memory leak issue with LyX. It occurs with 
both LyX 2.4.4 and 2.5.0 RC2.

The problem occurs when I change the windows theme colors. When LyX is 
running, if I change the windows theme color settings, LyX freezes (Not 
Responding) while memory usage steadily increases. After 10-20 seconds, 
it recovers, but with a large memory usage. You can see the white color 
of certain portion of the top bar. Attached are examples, where LyX 
memory usage went up to smtg around 3GB (when where is no file open) 
after I changed the Windows theme color two or three times. I think LyX 
Qt is trying the adjust for the new toolbar color, and cannot do it 
correctly.

I am on Windows 10, bu maybe similar issues may exists in other OS...
