Public bug reported:

In roughly 24 hours, unity-panel-service ended up with the following
memory usage:

  PID USER      PRI  NI  VIRT   RES   SHR S CPU% MEM%   TIME+  Command
30853 robin      20   0 4283M 2832M 16580 S  0.0 36.0  3h19:17 
unity-panel-service

it also starts to "forget" some icons, and until something makes them
refresh, they get a "missing icon" symbol instead.

The programs that have an icon in my panel typically are:
owncloud sync client, blueman-applet, telegram, slack, google play music 
desktop player, nm-applet, keyboard switcher, the regular bluetooth controls, 
messaging, battery, sound, clock, and the gear thing for settings.

If I manually kill it, it doesn't auto-restart. When I restart it
manually, it regularly fills the terminal with the message:

(unity-panel-service:30853): LIBDBUSMENU-GLIB-WARNING **: Sync failed,
now we've got extra layout nodes.

This didn't occur in Ubuntu 16.04.
