I'm not really sure what to do about this. There isn't enough information to go
on really. The above file isn't available any longer, but I've tried with
'totem http://movies.apple.com/movies/focus_features/9/9-tlr2_h480.mov' and
others and memory usage is absolutely steady once it is playing. I'm not aware
of any major leaks and I think at least the embedded people would have noticed.

Also, how are you measuring this exactly? What tools? What do they show
exactly?

There are some clips which have all the stream information at the end of the
file, in which case qtdemux would try to cache the entire file in RAM before
playing it, but that's on purpose then. Not sure if it still does that. Also,
this doesn't happen with files that are made for streaming.

Anyway, closing this bug for now. Please do re-open if it's still an issue with
up-to-date GStreamer modules and you can provide more information.
