Memory leak using emulator

Hi I'm working on transforming a CUDA program to OpenCL and run on FPGA, right now I'm using the emulator since I don't have the device yet. I wrote a OpenCL kernel that do some simple comput...

The goal is to port everything to OpenCL/FPGA. The whole program is not trivial so I'm trying to port one kernel at a time.

The problem I'm facing is whenever I launch a kernel thread on the emulator it would take more memory space, and it doesn't release them after it's done.
