Hi Andreas,

Thanks for following up on the memory leaks. I've done a run on our end
to investigate, and I've found that 1.4 still consumes considerably more
memory than the Intel ICD, but it seems there has been some measure of
improvement from 1.2 to 1.4:


That's quite possible, for multiple reasons. It could still be a memleak in 
some code path my tests don't cover. But it could also be just memory 
consumption from pocl's design, or memory fragmentation from pocl's use of 
malloc/free. I have put some effort into keeping pocl free of memory *leaks*, 
but AFAIK nobody has optimized pocl for memory *usage*.

But if you're interested in trying something out, PR 768 has some larger 
changes WRT memory, that could improve memory usage in certain scenarios.
