Is this a Bug? Launcher Eats more and more memory over time.  
I can start the launcher and let it sit and over time it will eat more and more ram until at around 4-5GB it will just stop responding. Is anyone else seeing this. Every morning when I come in it is about 4.5 GB and unresponsive with no project running.
