Bug#1116033: nexuiz: Lots of memory is allocated whenever video settings apply button is clicked

[Ælla Chiana Arson Bobbie Moskopp]

Package: nexuiz
Version: 2.5.2+dp-10
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: acab+debian-reportbug at dieweltistgarnichtso.net

Dear Maintainer,

whenever I click the “Apply immediately” button in Nexuiz in the
video settings dialog, the program allocates more memory even if
nothing changed in the settings. I expected it to not allocate a
single bit more than it had allocated previously.

Depending on if a level is loaded and which settings are active,
the amount of memory in these allocations can be hundreds of MB.

I only came upon this because my system hung after I changed the
settings a few times to see which ones yield the best experience
(i.e. look good, while not leading to an unplayable frame rate).
