Title:
  FGLRX  (2:15.200-0ubuntu0.5) OpenGL context memory leak.

Status in fglrx-installer-updates package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  This issue is effecting Linux Mint 17.2 KDE Rafaela (Ubuntu 14.04 LTS)

  The 'fglrx' driver set  (2:15.200-0ubuntu0.5) appears to  have a
  memory leak issue when setting the 'Compositing type' in KDE to OpenGL
  2.0/3.1. It will slowly bleed memory until 'xorg' is using gigs of
  memory. This issue does 'not' appear when using the open source driver
  set xserver-xorg-video-ati

  I am unable to isolate the problem but it appears that opening  a
  OpenGL context is part of the issue.
