The same happens on XP / Gnuplot.

With Gnuplot on XP, a single 'plot(1:10,1:10);' command increases handle 
count by 60 in Octave and by a surprisingly high number 660 in pgnuplot.

Loop 'for j=1:10;plot(1:10,1:10);pause(1);end' increases handle count by 
60 in Octave and by 6600 in pgnuplot.

Command 'dir(".")' increases handle count by 16-22, for some reason the 
delta varies.
