Description of problem:
I'm seeing ~100MB/s memory leak in either virt-viewer or virt-manager when redirecting a usb-webcam.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Client: virt-viewer or virt-manager on f22
spice-gtk-debuginfo-0.29-1.fc22.x86_64
spice-gtk-0.29-1.fc22.x86_64

usbredir-0.7-3.fc22.x86_64
virt-viewer-2.0-1.fc22.x86_64
guest: RHEL7.1
host: RHEL6
spice-server-0.12.4-12.el6_7.1.x86_64
spice-gtk-python-0.26-4.el6.x86_64
spice-glib-0.26-4.el6.x86_64
spice-gtk-0.26-4.el6.x86_64
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start virt-viewer or virt-manager on your local machine
2. Connect to a remote host running the guest
3. Perform a usbredir via spice of a cheap webcam (0c45:62f0 is the USB model in my case) to a usb 2 card on the guest
4. Start 'cheese' in the guest
Actual results:
~ 100MB/s leak
Expected results:
No leak.

Note: The connection between the host/client may be relevant:
host - somewhere in Boston
client - UK; on the end of a 50 down/3 MBps up cable link
with a VPN and the atlantic in between.

Thanks for the report + massif!
I can reproduce this on slow connection. Working on it!
