I have identical set-up to the original reporter: Jaunty, fully updated,
intel X4500MHD. I didn't used to see this problem, but since upgrading
to xserver-xorg-video-intel 2.6.3 I started getting this. Typically for
me I load a program the pre-allocates some memory - a wireshark capture
is a good one, and suddenly ubuntu will page ~200MB to disk. Even though
there is 3GB+ of free RAM, it just keeps adding to the swap each time,
and never seems to swap back.

Doesn't sound like there is any new version that fixes this yet, since
still reported here as present in 2.7.99.1, but I'll try a new version
when there is one that claims to fix this.
