Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help pin down the memory leak. I suppose I could restart Paint.NET manually every few days but it gets annoying having to reset my points in Curves (since there is no way to save them) and other filter settings to my preferred values each time. While this isn't awful, because it only happens about once a week and I rarely lose more than a few minutes of work, it's annoying. I guess at some point it just needs that extra GDI object or two but would reach Windows's 10,000 object maximum. The crash seems to happen randomly - it might be while opening an image, or using a tool, or using a filter, but always after clicking on something. I do have a bunch of plugins installed, but aside from the few I listed above I never use them. Typically I've edited a thousand or more images during the session by the time it crashes. I've had Paint.NET crash during sessions that I've used those filters at some point but haven't used them in a while (like I might go through a couple hundred of images without using any of those filters). The filters I typically use are built-in Levels, built-in Hue-Saturation, built-in Curves, third-party Curves+, and third-party Color Balance. I have some filters that I use but I've seen this crash even when not using filters for quite some time. I sometimes work with layers, too, but I've had this happen even when I've never touched anything with layers during the whole session.

Sometimes I use the selection (usually rectangle and lasso) tools as well, if I am working with color images (though most of the time I am using 8-bit grayscale images). My use case is I open 20 images in PNG format at a time, typically around 15-30 megapixels each, make minor edits to each one typically with the rectangle shape tool and the paintbrush tool, and then save each one when I am done. I was hoping it might be fixed with all the big changes in 4.3 but it's not (I'm running 4.3.2 now but have been extensively using Paint.NET for over a year now, and this problem has been ongoing). Typically this happens about once a week or so, with heavy use. I have had an ongoing problem where Paint.NET apparently runs out of GDI objects and crashes, I suppose due to a memory leak.
