Research direction

Start by reading the linked mailing-list post about the potential memory leak around table resolvers and inspect the table-resolver code in liblouis-java. Investigate whether JNA's StringArray can address the garbage-collection problem. The work is done when the cause is understood and a verified resolution is identified.
