    Description

      QFontCache is garbage collected every few minutes. Within this period, it is possible to grow it to any size if you are caching enough fonts. This has caused trouble for some people, and there should probably be an (optional?) bound on how far the cache can grow to avoid out of memory issues.

      Included main.cpp to reproduce the issue
