I can confirm the memory leak described by simply in comment #6 -- I have two keyboard layouts configured and just switching between them (using left alt + caps lock in my case) one can see gnome-settings- daemon's memory consumption increase and never go down.
I could not find a better bug for this problem but since at least one user reported the memory leak in gnome-settings-daemon via this bug I thought this was the closest bug that describes the issue. -- gnome-settings-daemon - keybord layout glitch https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/660126 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
