Are your tests including the "@cleanup" decorator? (The @cleanup
decorator is run implicitly with the @image_comparison decorator, so you
really only need one or the other).
Beyond that wild guess, I'm not sure what could be going on. You could
file a pull request with your new code, even if it's not fully ready, so
we could try it out and poke at it. Or just point us to your git branch
so we could check it out.

I have been implementing some new plot types, with tests. This code
passes all existing tests. I have also expanded the tests on some
existing plot types and mlab functions. These tests run fine on their
own.
The problem is that, when I run the code with the new tests, I get a
lot of out of memory errors. Further, the errors do not occur in the
new tests, but rather in other, unrelated tests. Further, the tests
that fail work fine when run on their own, they only fail when run as
part of the complete test suite.
Even stranger, when I run the tests in parallel (even with only one
process) and enable "--process-restartworker", the tests run fine
(with a large enough timeout). But "--process-restartworker" doesn't
help if parallel tests are not turned on.
So I am not sure exactly what to do here. Even if I leave out my own
tests, I may be running into some limit or memory leak that may very
well result in problems for other people down the road.
A solution might be to force tests to run in parallel with
"--process-restartworker", but of course it would be better to find
out where the leak is.
