I was able to reduce (but not solved) the leak somehow, for 3 days now, using swappiness. I have slightly icreased my swap partition, and setup like this : cat /proc/sys/vm/swappiness sudo sysctl vm.swappiness=40 sudo mousepad /etc/sysctl.conf # confirm you have this line : vm.swappiness=40 Now for the strange part : Memory leak is still happening, gradually reaching 40% as I am using my laptop more and more. But once it reaches 40%, the memory leak won't go any further and i don't see my swap increasing neither (which I found very strange, I chech and recheck, swap is all well and active). Xorg is still the higher ram eater (but not the only one eating ram), but now, it seems stuck to 40% which, at least prevents the need to reboot my laptop as often as before.
