For reference I've posted a related question to see if I can do some more investigation myself here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/533052 /how-to-find-and-report-memory-leak
Meanwhile it seems to be shared memory that is leaking so I'm wondering if it is actually a problem in the X Server or graphics driver? (Although it's only drawing applications that seem to suffer from the problem). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1323434 Title: Awful memory leaks when using image editing software To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gimp/+bug/1323434/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
