Description

While working on compiling sketches with embedded libraries, I ran into the situation described in the attached screenshot. I have not looked into it but on the surface it looks like there might be some resources that might survive too long. This likely happened with 1.8.5 and 1.9.0

Research direction

Reproduce compiling sketches with embedded libraries using the Arduino IDE versions mentioned, 1.8.5 and 1.9.0, and compare the resulting temporary-resource behavior with the attached screenshot. Trace where compilation resources are created and released; done means confirming the leak and ensuring those resources do not survive longer than necessary.
