Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

I'm experiencing memory leak with xorg in both lucid and maverick if I
set an .xml file for wallpaper slideshow. Xorg gets all the memory up to
4GB in few minutes. Using top, I saw memory usage increased when
wallpaper changes. Because it changes every 5 secs, lacking is totally
out of controll. Disabling compiz the issue seems disappeard, even
though (with top as well) leaking is still there (but slower than when
compiz is running)
