Essentially, it's the UI subsystem. I've been poking around today and have found a number of references to this process being worse in this build than in previous ones, and it's been a problem throughout most of the WinMo 6.5 lifecycle, but external applications (like Opera, for example) can also cause GWES to appear to leak memory.

Probably a combination of both, given that as Drellisdee cautioned us, we are using unofficial bleeding edge builds of Windows CE. Maybe the next OS build will solve some problems, but even if it doesn't, I for one am still so much happier with my phone I can live with a soft reset every couple days No way am I going back to stock!! lol. I saw some references to using an older gwes.exe, but that's playing with fire in my opinion.
