Just to confirm that i have same problem: OpenSuse 11.4 64 bit, NVidia drivers 270.41.06-5.1
Here is an output for 5 days of standard usage: XOrg: 29436K / 75625K / 241952K / 313420K / 371412K Plasma desktop: 29788K / 81688K / 88208K / 89252K /93828K Kwin: 31188K / 36984K / 37708K /50812K / 58028K Even if I do nothing at all allocated memory gets bigger. I'm using NVidia drivers 270.41... provided via Yast repositories. When I logout or restart system memory usage drops to~25000K, but after 3 - 4 days it gets too slow to work with, even with 8GB RAM on 6 core CPU. These processes listed, after 3 days, are the top memory consumers. ** Also affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers-180 (openSUSE) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/726268 Title: xorg memory leak To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-180/+bug/726268/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
