This appears to occur in all graphical applications running on the phone (but not on the desktop). Running "smemstat -p $(pidof unity8-dash) 10" provides the same symptoms. So presumably this is a result of an issue somewhere lower down in the stack. I haven't been able to figure out what specifically, so I'll add any projects that seems plausible and their respective developers can remove/invalidate them as appropriate.
