I asked because I tried a simple loop that does an HttpClient.Get() 8192 
times. It eats a bit of memory if I don't call the event loop, because 
some stuff is freed only during it. But if I call 'Wait' after each 
request, I have no memory leak.

So it may be something related to the URL requested... I tried with 
"localhost".
