[Bug 619545] [NEW] Very high Xorg memory usage with twin view, GeForce 9600 GS and nvidia driver

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

>From some time - I bet since either some nvidia driver update or
switching to dual monitor config , the memory usage started to growing,
after a day of using multiple windows etc Xorg can eat few hundreds of
MBs, closing all aps and even log out from KDE don't help, memory is
left after full Xorg restart. At the moment my Xorg utilizes 707MB
virtual, 549MB private and 13MB shared memory.

Process memory map (pmap output) attached in pmap.txt
