I confirmed that this is leaking. We’ll make sure to get this fixed in the upcoming Vuo 0.9 release.

The major leak is in the Make Layer with Shadow node. If you replace that node with Blur Image and Invert Image Colors, it’s better (it still leaks slightly, but you should be able to run it for a couple hours before it uses up all your memory). I’ve attached a modified version of your composition.

I can see the attachment?
