No, it's not something I've had a chance to look into too deeply.
So what evidence do we have that there is a memory leak? The gpu logs here don't indicate any GPU side leaks.
We need to be sure that arm memory reducing is a real leak. Note that linux will use any spare memory as file cache, so free memory going down, but stopping at about 16M may not be a memory leak (use "free" to see where memory is being used and see here). If there genuinely is an arm memory leak then kodi will exit with an out-of-memory message in the kernel log (dmesg).
I don't doubt there is a problem, but we need to be sure the "memory leak" exists.
Obviously if you can provide instructions so I reproduce the problem that would help.
