Public bug reported:
gnome-settings-daemon leaks memory ( adds about 1 MB per minute )
Observed process use 100% + CPU utilization on one core for more than 30
minutes. Memory grew from about 200 MB to 390 MB during this 30 minute
period.
Process status was reported as "Sleeping/futex_wait_queme_me".
However, as soon as I typed 'ubuntu-bug' in the terminal it switched to
Running ~ and then dropped its CPU usage to 60% and gave back 100MB of
memory.
Then while typing this comment here.... it went back up to 102% and
started consuming memory again.
See attached screenshot
