[vtkusers] Bug or Leak in vtkFeatureEdges !

On vtk 4.0

I modified the win32Cone sample provided with vtk to show this problem we
have. (See attachment.)
I simply added a second mapper\actor to display the cone's edges.
I also added a vtkPolyDataNormal and vtkFeatureEdges filters.

Each time i use an instance of vtkFeatureEdges, 500 K of dynamic memory are
consumed !
If i create 100 actors, even if they are simple, our software's memory usage
will increase by 50 MB.
...which of course is unacceptable !

So we're using vtk 4.0 (binaries from vtk setup) on Win2K.

Thanks for any help !
