Without precise details of what you are doing, it is impossible to judge.
It is well known that big gcode files will cause Axis to eat all memory
on small boards when doing a preview, but that is NOT a leak.
Whether that happens more quickly on Stretch, which may well be a
'heavier' system, I
Can you please quantify the assertion that Stretch has a memory leak
with Axis.
I have been using Stretch since it was alpha status. Usually any memory
leak is with a program and will manifest irrespective of the distro.
