** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xorg
  
  This could be video driver/metacity/xorg related - I'm not sure at this
  point.
  
  Anyhow, firing up inkscape and just resizing the window for a minute
  pushes Xorgs appparent memory use up by about 10MB.
  
  Closing inkscape doesn't release the memory.
  
  I'm quite sure this is actually leaked somewhere - when it was up to
  1.4GB my machine was nearly unusable even after closing all X
  applications.
  
  I couldn't properly check if it was userspace or not because of bug
  376798, which may be related.
  
  This may be yet-another-dup of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source
  /xorg-server/+bug/98783 . I will note that this is reproducible right
  after boot, without starting up firefox or any other applications.
