Memory leak in client

[mike]

Problem

At least when connected running on windows, there is a memory leak in the client.

Problem exists under Linux as well... It only happens when you are fully connected and online.

Problem is with geomRays building up.. Trying to figure out why.

ps. used pysizer (http://pysizer.8325.org/doc/tutorial.html) to profile mem use.

Solution

Found out that ode has a dict called _geom_c2py_lut that it puts all geoms in. To really delete a geom, you need to find it in the values of that table and then delete it.

If this method turns out to be too slow, it may also be possible to create rays for each running thread and reuse them.
