Hi Gib,

I can confirm that "RGB Split" is causing a leak. I've been processing
stacks for about 2 hours using precisely the RGB Split a lot, and I can
see some unreleased 18 Mb of memory (compared to the about 2 Gb worth of
images I've opened, it's rather small, so it may be sneaky to find).
This looks to me like a bug introduced in the late memory-saving
routines involving images, but I may be wrong.

Have you tracked the exact code lines responsible?

I'm using java 1.6.0 on linux x86
