This problem appears when applying many times the Dynamic Range Filter in a large dynamic graph.
I'm using the Toolkit built from the 0.8 release sources, but this leak could affect the desktop application when using the Dynamic Range Filter.

Attached, a zip containing a gexf file with a large dynamic graph, and a java file that applies a dynamic range filter many times in succession, in order to take snapshots of the graph at different ranges.
The application starts with low memory usage after loading the graph, but when the filter is applied some times, the memory usage starts to increase.

It seems that the EventManager thread does not bear the amount of events generated by the filtering (the rate of produced events is much larger than the rate of consumed events).
