Does this happen only on 10.11?
Is it a built-in or external device you're capturing from? (output of -list_devices could be helpful).

I don't recall it ever happening in prior versions. At the very least, the console output didn't spit those warnings until 10.11. I am capturing the built-in display and audio from Soundflower (2ch).

Added attachment of -list_devices.

How do you know there is a memory leak?

I use iStat Menus to monitor memory usage.

Just want to point out that this still occurs as of the official 10.11 release.
