[Bug 783492] Re: compiz is consuming 6.5 GiB memory

 

I can confirm this on amd64 with an ATI Radeon HD 5670 using fglrx.
This madness could be related to my bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/784651
Amongst the host of memory hogging programs causing my rig to thrash under normal conditions, compiz was up there with firefox and nautilus. (was there a fundamental change that inflated ubuntu's memory footprint exponentially?) 

I use Gnome (can't stand the new  desktop environment, too flashy and
impractical IMHO) via the "Ubuntu Classic" session.
