were found with analyzer tools.
When the Xorg process shows taking a lot of memory, it's usually a rogue
client or the display driver leaking, and the xserver is caching pixmap
memory. This is not a bug in the xserver, and sho

I've tried lucid a couple of days and Xorg is using about 240-270MB
virtual memory (120-140MB resident), which is much better than the 1.5GB

I used to have similar issues with Xorg using up 300-400 MB after a

Is this problem solved for anybody else with lucid?

@Shahar
It's clearly a memory leak in Xorg since that's taking up 25% of your 1GB, that
is, around 250MB.
I'd advise you to discuss the issue on IRC [1] in #ubuntu-bugs . They
can help you pull more information from your system so that you can post
it here for developers' attention.

Xorg's memory consumption goes up each time the tty is switched to or
from the one running the X server, and each time the box is suspended &
resumed. The increase at each step depends on the 'pixmem' size.
In the following, I switched between tty1 (CLI) and tty7 (X) and took a reading
each time
