The last few months, Komodo has occasionally started eating large 
amounts of memory (300-500MB resident) shortly after I start it. The 
behavior hasn't been consistent, and I haven't been able to identify 
steps to reproduce or contributing factors.

But today it happened again, and this time I noticed that the VCS icons 
in the tabs of the three version-controlled files I had open in Komodo 
weren't all present. All three files are currently up-to-date, and the 
leftmost tab for a version-controlled file had the requisite green 
checkmark, but the two tabs for the version-controlled files to the 
right of it had no icon.

Upon restart, all three tabs showed the green checkmark, and Komodo has 
been using a normal amount of memory (about 80MB resident) for the last 
20 minutes or so.

I'm using Komodo 5.2a1, but I think I started seeing the problem before 
I upgraded from the stable release. I'm running the application on Linux 
(Ubuntu 9.04), which is running in a VM using VMware Fusion, and the 
version-controlled files are in the filesystem of the host OS (Mac OS X 
10.5.8), which is mounted in the VM using Fusion's "shared folders" 
feature, so perhaps that's a factor.

The files are version-controlled using Mercurial, and they're all in the 
same repository. Besides those three files, the only other open files 
are the Start Page and a non-version-controlled file that is also on the 
host OS's filesystem.

Has anyone else noticed this problem or know what might be going on?
