Thanks for the report. I closed the report with a comment. What you 
found is a case of confusing code, not a true memory leak in mpl. I 
will try to clarify it a bit without getting into a major refactoring.

Thanks Eric, I changed my app to create a new colorbar every time it
redraws the plot and that fixes the memory issue for me.

I have a matplotlib application whose memory consumption increases with
each call to matplotlib.colorbar.draw_all(). I'm using the matplotlib
0.99.0 as found in the ubuntu karmic (universe) repository. 
I've filed a bug report, ID 2934351, titled "Possible memory leak in
colorbar", with a minimum working example attached to the bug report.
