So far as I said, switching desktops and moving a folderview around made it grow, but regular use (I mostly use the task bars, and the notifier likes to pop up a lot) causes the same growth. > oh, and does this happen if you use the open source driver? Don't know, using the opensource driver makes my 8800GTS fairly useless. I can test it out for a while.. but seems to me if it was a driver leak, it wouldn't show up as owned by plasma, instead it'd just make X's virt-mem usage increase. -- Thomas Fjellstrom tfjellst...@strangesoft.net _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
