Want to note that running in classic mode, Compiz has 37 megs resident
in memory.  When running Unity, Compiz starts out using 150megs and
begins climbing consistently.  Reaches 1.5 gigs after about two hours.
After 24 hrs, my 8 gigs of ram are 100% consumed and my machine is too
busy swapping to be responsive.

Dual screen.
