[Robert Hooker <sarvatt@xxxxxxxxx>]

the BO reuse comment was in regards to intel, Vish has an ATI though.

** Package changed: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) => xserver-xorg-
video-ati (Ubuntu)

** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
+ Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati
  
  When Playing flash video for some time, i notice that the memory usage jumps and is very high.
  The swap is also used up. And nearly 70-80% RAM and 50% of swap [total swap 3.39 GiB] gets used.
  I have rarely ever noticed such high swap usage.
  
  This happens only while playing flash videos in firefox or Chrome[ium]
  
  Wasnt happening earlier , it is a regression
  
  From #ubuntu-x
   <Sarvatt> vish: yeah I'm experiencing the same problem with intel right now, disabling BO reuse in driconf fixes it
  
   <Sarvatt> might end up having to default BO reuse to off
