>How would leaking the image cause a crash?

Server runs out of memory and is killed. Meanwhile, mirscreencast client
fails to connect since there is no server.

** Summary changed:

- mirscreencast crashes, fails to take screenshot
+ Buffer leak during repeated mirscreencasts causes server to be killed

Bug description:
  Nexus 4 running latest stable image -

  current build number: 25
  device name: mako
  channel: ubuntu-touch/stable/ubuntu
  last update: 2015-12-08 11:53:16
  version version: 25
  version ubuntu: 20151118.2
  version tag: OTA-8
  version device: 20150911
  version custom: 20151118.2

  I'm running the following command to capture a screenshot of a running
  app, the unity shell, the splash screen when apps load etc.

    adb shell mirscreencast -m /var/run/mir_socket  -n1

  I'm doing this in a script, across many hundreds of apps, so I'm doing
  it a lot. I'm seeing my script get wedged fairly often with errors
  such as this one:-
