Public bug reported:

Xorg keeps going up with its physical memory usage and it keeps on doing
so until it takes over all of my RAM and eventually my system becomes
highly unstable. It goes up faster if I do stuff on my pc, like browsing
or using applications. After a few days of non-stop usage I need to
restart it because my pc cannot handle it anymore, it skyrockets, slowly
but surely. I'm using ubuntu trusty, fglrx gpu drivers and everything is
encrypted using built-in encryption. This is a serious issue and needs
to be fixed asap, it renders the pc useless after just a few days. I'll
gladly provide further information if you contact me on my mail.
