If your system doesn't crash/hangs before you can stop it, then you will see that the app is consuming memory like the Americans are consuming oil. And according to me, my program respects the Memory Management rules. So I say there is a bug.
Then you misunderstand. Nothing in the Memory Management rules will protect you, your program, or the system against your program consuming large amounts of RAM or VM.
They just prevent leaks. But not all memory consumption constitutes a leak.
There are implications to delayed release (a.k.a. autorelease pools) that apply even if you are following the rules. You are responsible for understanding and dealing with those implications.
If you think there's a bug, please point to the contractual obligation on the part of the frameworks which you feel isn't being honored.
