Memory leak in TORCS?

Hi all,

my name is Daniele Loiacono and I am a Postdoc at Politecnico di Milano
(Italy).
In the last months I am working on applying Machine Learning techniques
to TORCS as I think it is a very nice testbed for many techniques.

I discovered a memory leak in TORCS when the race is restarted. I am
using TORCS 1.3.0 on Linux (Open Suse) and each time the race is
restarted the memory used increase approximately of 500KBytes. As I
extended TORCS with an automatic restart procedure to apply Machine
Learning to it, I quickly get a memory overflow.

I tried to debug TORCS to locate the leak and it seems to be related
with the loading of Track information, but I was not able to understand
where exactly the problem is?

Does someone notice the same problem or find any solution?

Best regards,
Daniele Loiacono
