[Bug 1057263] Re: gtk-window-decorator leaks large numbers of pixmaps and pixmap memory

 

** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ 
+ Memory leak when resizing window in normal mode.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 
  Test case:
  1. Install xrestop (sudo apt-get install xrestop)
  2. Run xrestop and look for the gtk-window-decorator row
  3. Note the values for "Pxms" and "Pxm mem".
  4. Resize a window rapidly (make sure you have Normal resize mode, not Rectangle)
  
  Expected: No significant change in Pxm metrics.
  Observed: Hundreds of pixmaps leaked and Pxm mem grows by several megabytes per second.
+ 
+ [Regrsesion Potential]
+ 
+ Low, used in Ubuntu 12.10 as well without regressions.
