I use a few TextRenderers to draw lots of text every frame. I noticed a slow memory leak, and I believe it is inside the TextRenderers. If I replace them after an hour of rendering (with myRenderer = new TextRenderer(...);) the garbage collector can immediately free up ~20MB for each TextRenderer. If I let my program run overnight, the memory leak gets massive.

I tried flush()'ing each TextRenderer every frame, but that does not seem to help. Am I doing something wrong?

I can provide a minimalist example if needed. I'm using Java 8 on Windows 10.

Thanks,
