Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-panel
There seems to be a memory leak in the completion feature of the "Run
Application" dialog.
Steps to reproduce:
* Start top or the System Monitor to monitor the memory usage of the
gnome-panel process in real time.
* Open the "Run Application" dialog
* Type a letter, ("g" for example).
* Wait a few seconds, memory usage goes up a bit (up to 1MB here)
* Press backspace, wait a few seconds, memory usage goes up again.
* Rinse, repeat.
* Close the "Run Application" dialog, the memory is not released.
In a long-running session (several days), if the user regularly uses the
"Run Application" dialog, that can cause gnome-panel to bloat up to
several hundreds MB.
** Affects: gnome-panel (Ubuntu)
