Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-panel
Memory used by clock-applet grows without limits. My panel has autohide set. clock-applet takes on average 0.48 MB per each unhide/hide. For example, at the moment it takes 175 MB on my machine, few hours after it was restarted ("memory" as reported by gnome-system-monitor). Together with other gnome-panel related leaks it easily grows to few GB over time and I my system grinds to halt swapping.
