If I may ask an annoying question, when you say stack memory, did you
really mean stack memory, or you actually mean allocated memory ? If you
don't know the answer, would it be possible to tell how you measure
memory usage ?

For dynamic memory, you should consider using valgrind. The normal tool
(memcheck) will tell you what leaked (though take note GStreamer/GLib
leaks stuff voluntarily), and for run-time growth of memory usage, there
is massif memory profiler:
