Reassigning for further evaluation.
From what I can tell from the heap dump it seems that the output window is holding onto a large number of lines - I guess all the lines that the app you ran from the IDE printed. Clearing the OW window should help, but probably the OW should have some kind of a line limit.
Yes, Output Window simply does not scale.
This should be solved by fix of bug 185462. Thank you for reporting.
