    Description

      If QtQuick application dynamically allocates memory for QML objects and then deallocates the same objects with destroy() only part of the memory is returned back to the OS.

      Steps to reproduce.

      1. Please run the attached example. 
      2. Inspect the memory usage of the application process (valgrind --tool=massif --pages-as-heap=yes, pmap -d or top)
      3. Create QML objects by pressing the button in the application
      4. Repeat step 2.)
      5. Delete the QML objects by pressing the button in the application
      6. Repeat step 2.)

      It can be observed that only about 1/3 of the memory that was allocated is returned back to the OS.
