Want to note that running in classic mode, Compiz has 37 megs resident in memory. When running Unity, Compiz starts out using 150megs and begins climbing consistently. Reaches 1.5 gigs after about two hours. After 24 hrs, my 8 gigs of ram are 100% consumed and my machine is too busy swapping to be responsive.
