** This bug has been marked a duplicate of bug 1065657 compiz leaks window handles (and pixmaps?) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1006752 Title: memory leak leads to extremely high memory usage Status in compiz package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Leaving this desktop PC running overnight, while logged in and a bunch of windows open, compiz tends to get completely out of control. This morning I arrived to it using 5500MB of RAM (pushing some of the system into swap and making everything extremely slow). This makes the system unusable (as compiz and the memory heavy applications running don't fit into RAM anymore, using the desktop is just not viable...) The workaround is to kill -KILL compiz whenever it happens.
