Description:
When importing models (particularly DB4 Designer models, but any other does it too), which are large (300+ tables, lots of references) then the memory usage of WB raises to an extraordinary high value 1GB+.

How to repeat:
Import a really large model.

Suggested fix:
This bug report is a follow up to bug #37178 and others. The fix requires a changed GRT (as implemented in WB 5.1) as well as other heavy changes in the underlying structures (in particular: canvas).

Closing as duplicate as bug #37178 already covers this. Either way, the bug seems fixed.
