[allowframebreaks] causes memory leak

[OliverFaust]

Dear Experts,

The following code:

\documentclass[10pt]{beamer}
\usetheme{glasgow}
\begin{document}
\begin{frame}[allowframebreaks]{Summary}
\end{frame}
\end{document}

causes a memory leak. That means the process will not stop until all system memory is exhausted. Without [allowframebreaks] the document is produced as expected.
The code was executed with:
lualatex -synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode --shell-escape "demoAllowFrameBreaks".tex

Any pointers on how to solve the problem would be greatly appreciated.

Hmm, I've never tried running the template with lualatex. Have you tried with xelatex?

[OliverFaust]

There are two issues when using xelatex:

1. FiraSans is not found
2. TeX capacity exceeded, sorry [main memory size=5000000]. \end{frame}

Using LuaLaTeX solves the first error. The second issue seems to indicate a memory leak.
With the solution, I follow Theo Pepler who suggests:
Under the Build options, change Default Compiler to LuaLaTeX, and click OK.
