There is a memory leak in current AMD Radeon VDPAU consuming a few hundred kBytes/sec while playing video.
My findings:
- Disabling VDPAU solves the memory leak.
- The issue started with #0531 commit "Added: [env] patch: mesa: update to 12.0.0-rc1"
- Reverting mesa to 11.2.2 in my LE build solves the memory leak.
- Fortunately building LE with the git head of the upcoming 12.0.2 release solves the memory leak too, so the bug seems to be fixed.
