Answer 1

It looks like the debug image drawn per frame is not being cleared up properly which, is probably leading to this memory leak.

Best will to file a bug report with Apple via https://developer.apple.com/bug-reporting/ so they know multiple people are having this issue and can hopefully give a higher priority.

Hope that helps.
