I'm using my Imagemagick patch I posted a while ago a lot to work with
scanned documents. They are mostly 300dpi A4 BW djvu images.
After viewing something like 100 images or so, the entire X session
frequently crashes.
I cant figure out where the leakage is. Killing the image buffers doesnt
help. The image cache is supposed to be flushed frequently enough for X
not to crash right?
The basic allocation/deallocation is the same as for most other
image type supports in emacs. Does someone else experience the same
problem with viewing a large number of SVG images for instance?

Don't know about SVG, but at least I often view many PNG images (via
docview-mode displaying a PDF document) and haven't noticed any
related problem. This is no guarantee, of course.

There once was a leak (that's now fixed) in SVG viewing, please see:

for a test case that I hope you find useful for your case as well.
