Well, I have a quite long script which is supposed to run at least 12
hours before restarting. Obviously I had a memory leak:  the script
stops after 2-4 hours with a jvm heap exception. I've tracked this one
down by minimizing my script until nothing had been left. The number
recognition is a major part in my script. it is executed about 20 times
/ minute.

The excerpt provided above starts at about 150 MB private memory and
will go up within 5-10 minutes to 250 ... It will end with a heap
exception if just let it go on.

Title:
  Memory leak in Region.right(x)

Status in Sikuli:
  New

Bug description:
  It took me a while* to track this one down:

  NO memory leak:

  def getNumbers(numType, region):
       return 0

  def test()
      x=regions['topLeft'].find("JI.png")
      getNumbers("topLeft", x) # <----<----<---- Region

  while True:
       test()

  
  MEMORY LEAK:

  def getNumbers(numType, region):
       return 0

  def test()
      x=regions['topLeft'].find("JI.png")
      getNumbers("topLeft", x.right(75)) #<---<---<--- Region.right(x)

  while True:
       test()

  System: win7 64bit
  JRE 1.6.32 (JRE1.7.04 tested as well)
  Sikuli X1.0rc3(905) (1.0RC930 tested as well)

  I've tested a few variations of the code above already. I will go on,
  since that script is essential to a project I am running.

  PS: getNumbers is my own text (number) recognition algorithm since
  region.text() isn't working yet.

  * "a while" == 12 days - anyway, sikuli is really good for it's
  purpose
