in fact, i don't load levels at startup. But, once one is loaded, i keep it
loaded. It's why it takes more and more memory. But it's not new with 0.2.3 ;
the behavior in 0.2.2 was to load directly all. In endoflevel, we could unload
the level.
Then, according to you, it's a problem of memory ?
I'll work on the replay pb tonight i think so that xmoto takes less memory.
ls -lh ~/.xmoto/Replays ? how much do you have ?

it means that i don't do the good test. I will retry tonight.
If you disable the limits, have you still the pb ? I will look at it tonight.
I've time tonight to work on xmoto.

yes, i notice it, but it has always been like this (just rm -rf LCache is enough
to test; it takes 135mo on my computer ; but the problem is the same for
replays, there are fully loaded, i have done no index for them).
I should add a unload() to the levels when loading them the first time.
