Open USC give it about 20secs it will level out at about 170 meg 2. Click on an app run myutils.statinfo('software-center') 3. Click on All Software and run myutils.statinfo('software-center') 4. Click on a different app and run myutils.statinfo('software-center') 5. Click on All Software and run myutils.statinfo('software-center') 6. Click on the same app again and run myutils.statinfo('software-center') My assumption is that the webkit display isn't dropping info once the page is no longer displayed. This is good for speed returning to a page but is drastically increasing the memory footprint of USC when searching through a selection of apps for a new user not familiar with the application names.
