Hi all, Just noticed that scanimage leaks buffer_size bytes per scan when used in batch mode. By default, that's 32 kb. When using the buffer-size option it's 1Mb or whatever size you passed.
Patch is attached. It moves the memory allocation out of scan_it() and into main(), just before where the non-test-mode branch starts the batch loop.
