Memory leak in PyDS?

The following picture clearly shows there is a memory leak in PyDS. Given the frequency at which the memory increases it must be in the aggregator section. All of my RSS feeds update every 60 minutes.

I'll try to find the time to debug as proposed by Jeremy Bowers:

If you want to debug this, I'd recommend whipping up a little tool that when poked, runs gc.collect then dumps the output of gc.get_objects out to the HTML. You'll have a lot to wade through, but odds are, if there is a memory leak, you'll see tons upon tons of one particular item that stands out, especially if you've run this for a while.

Feel free to read what I drop here, but don't expect to find something thrilling. I'm just learning Python and discovering PyDS, the perfect combination, isn't it.
