Matlab throws "Out of memory" exception when running the test pack on PC with Windows 64 and 8GB RAM

Matlab is 32bit though.

The bug has been reported by Yuri Admiralsky:

I found one test, which raises "memory out" on Windows 7 64-bit system with 8GB 
of memory:

gras.ellapx.uncertcalc.test.regr.run_regr_tests({'uosc8'})

The main reason is plot visualixation:

 \products\+gras\+ellapx\+uncertcalc\run.m lines 96-103 

The error is raised while saving plots. The code is:

\lib\+smartdb\+disp\@RelationDataPlotter\RelationDataPlotter.m, lines 161-183

Here memory consuming grows rapidly and then program crash or raises "Out of 
memory" with errors in bultin matlab functions.

Also memory greatly consumes in:

 \products\+gras\+ellapx\+uncertcalc\run.m lines 96-102 but this code doesn't raise error itself.

Optimization of plotting (memory consuming) will greatly reduce problems with 
testing.

Memory consumption while evaluating \products\+gras\+ellapx\+uncertcalc\run.m 
(debug points):

line 96 ~ 500MB
line 102 ~ 2.7GB
line 106 - unreachable - writes "out of memory" and then exits with error in 
MATLAB print.m built-in function.

So the memory leak not only in saveas() but in plotting (in fact the code in 
\lib\+smartdb\+disp\@RelationDataPlotter\RelationDataPlotter.m at first shows 
the plot, then save it (and doesn't close). And we also add plots, produced by 
lines 96-98.
