I also wanted to say:
- Thank you for the patch. I appreciate the chance to try a fix.
- I doubt the issue is related to text because my scripts shows a memory
leak even if the displayed text is never updated (comment out the line
that modifies the x axis limits to see what I mean; though I confess I
did not try that with the trunk matplotlib, only with 1.0.0).

Can you apply the attached patch and let me know if it solves your issue?

If you're able to try this with the 1.0.x SVN branch or the SVN trunk (plus my text patch) let me know. I am not able to reproduce any sort of memory leak with these newer versions, but I am able to with 1.0.0 as released (with or without my text patch). This is with or without the x axis limits updating you suggested. I believe there have been other memory leak fixes since the 1.0.0 release.
Cheers,
Mike
