Character Builder: Memory Leak

I've repeated this a few times now, though I'm not 100% certain about the details.

1.  Started the program.
2.  Began creating a character, selecting race, class, build, etc. and clicking the Next button to advance.
3.  Once I have reached the page allowing me to name my character, I return to the feats page to double-check something.  At this point, the program suffers heavy lag and a Ctrl + Shift + Esc (for the Task Manager) shows increasing memory consumption of the builder.  Five seconds occur between each of my actions.

After toying a bit with the program, I'm noticing that scrolling up and down the Feats list increases memory consumption on a large scale.  Given that I have a Quad Core CPU and 4 GB of RAM, this should be trivial at best, but sure enough I watched my memory of the program go from 250,180 K all the way up to 812, 926 K and it was still going.

I've been having a similar problem.

Curiously, it seemed to be orders of magnitude worse if I raised my level 10 changeling's wisdom from 8 to 13.  Make change - return to feats page - program dies slow chugging death.
