Window / Valgrind reports 464 bytes lost in simple Window program

« on: February 15, 2020, 10:40:20 pm »

Valgrind is showing leakage for the following program:

#include <SFML/Window.hpp>

int main() {
  sf::Window window(sf::VideoMode(800, 600), "demo");

  while (window.isOpen()) {
    sf::Event event;
    while (window.pollEvent(event)) {
      if (event.type == sf::Event::Closed) window.close();
    }
    window.display();
  }
}

Is this a known problem on Linux?  I'm running Arch with Kernel 5.5.3
