Comment:
After trying other media players I've discovered that it's not directly
Rhythmbox.

Just for more info, I am loading an m3u that contains all files found in
my library that Rhythmbox uses. It's over 28,000 songs.

beep-media-player shows none of this behaviour over about 3 hours.  It's
memory usage stays pretty close to where it starts.

totem-gstreamer started at
  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND
 7658 dclarke   15   0  288m  41m  15m S    4  4.2   6:54.95 totem 
... after a few hours of playback ...
  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND
 7658 dclarke   15   0  529m  42m  15m S    3  4.2   8:23.67 totem
 9030 dclarke   15   0  505m  28m 1284 S    0  2.8   0:00.00 totem 

I've also noticed that in both cases, the VIRT column increases by 8MB
(sometimes 10MB) each song wheter it's played through or skipped.
Skipping backwards yeilds the same increase.

I'm not sure which direction this should go, but it's definitely at a
lower level than the applications themselves.

gstreamer0.10 bug?
