** Description changed: Binary package hint: xorg This could be video driver/metacity/xorg related - I'm not sure at this point. Anyhow, firing up inkscape and just resizing the window for a minute pushes Xorgs appparent memory use up by about 10MB. Closing inkscape doesn't release the memory. I'm quite sure this is actually leaked somewhere - when it was up to 1.4GB my machine was nearly unusable even after closing all X applications. I couldn't properly check if it was userspace or not because of bug 376798, which may be related. This may be yet-another-dup of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source /xorg-server/+bug/98783 . I will note that this is reproducible right after boot, without starting up firefox or any other applications.
