Memory is continuously going up at bridge search

There is a possibility that search thread has memory leak. I could not check in the code since it could be in native code. When I called startBridgeDiscovery() in HueQuickStartAppAndroid continuously like following patch , I realized that memory consumption (VSIZE and RSS ) seems to be going up. (I checked it with adb shell ps | grep "philips" x 7 times).

I would like to continuously keep searching bridge and hue lights without UI trigger around the mobile device. Could you advise me what I should do for it?
