Hi,

I had my Xserver running for about 24 hours straight and noticed that it
was using about 220M virtual memory. Even after closing all clients and
logging out the memory usage didn't drop significantly. After I killed
and restarted gdm it uses "only" about 90M. Does this indicate a memory
leak in the Xserver or are there other possible explanations for such
behaviour?
Memory can only ever increase for processes which do memory allocation using brk() - there is no way to return such memory to the OS.
