Luca,

I had a look with valgrind massif at the problem in
http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=18727. The problem is indeed fonts
not being released. I have a patch attached to the issue. 
The problem with valgrind and glib is that it generates a lot of false
positives. Setting the evironment variable G_SLICE=always-malloc helps a
lot. It is the equivelent for glib to using cmem in fpc.
