Description:
HandBrake chews up RAM/SWAP unnecessarily when using the queue; it seems to hoard data for future encodes. Should it not just concentrate on one video at a time?

Additional info:
0.9.4-3 64-bit

Steps to reproduce:
Open HandBrake (which uses about 14MB RAM) then select a source (DVD) and it consumes approximately 100 - 200MB. If you queue this and add another source, an additional 100 - 200MB is used and so on. Once I have about 3 or 4 queued items my 1GB of RAM is gone.
This task depends upon

Do you think reporting this to upstream? Does not look as packaging issue.
