Anyone got any ideas where 4k a sec is coming from?

I've got a basic program running SDL2 that loads a surface and a class wrapper that handles object creation/texture loading. Before I even start to generate objects SDL is streaming extra memory at around 4k a second. Is this a known issue or could I have created some weird loop. I don't call any new objects in my code apart from the class to hold the objects that will be created: pAsset_explosions= new GeneralObject("disposable_explosion.png", screenCoords); pAsset_explosions->fLoadImages(mpRenderer);

OMG FFS I have found it, the problem was:

SDL_RENDERER_PRESENTVSYNC

if((Renderer = SDL_CreateRenderer(Window, -1, SDL_RENDERER_ACCELERATED | SDL_RENDERER_PRESENTVSYNC ))== nullptr) {
     return false;
}

If you get near a point, make it!

So how exactly does that cause a memory leak? It's supposed to be a framerate limiter?
