To update this question. I tried without GDM, just with startx, same situation. Then I tried Chromium and Xorg stayed at 5%. So, it seams it's only related to Iceweasel. To check if it has something to do with Debian's changed version, I downloaded Firefox binary from mozilla.org, but even with this version Xorg still eats RAM. If someone wants to confirm, try with page like this: http://monk3y.tumblr.com/ Scroll down and check memory usage. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
