yes, that's a known bug. Every time the write or notification callback
is executed it will leak a few bytes of memory. This bug has been fixed
in the current git repository for both version 4.9 and 4.10. And just as
I was about to point to the relevant patches I noticed that version
4.10.1 was released two days ago. That should fix your problem.
