My gtk-window-decorator regularly climbs to 500 MB and I end up swapping a lot with other programs running. Alt-Tab between windows increases the use. Basically, I get around 1 MB added to the total memory used by gtk- window-decorator for each time I Alt-Tab between windows (as observed by System Monitor's). No end in sight in terms of chomping more (leaking more?) memory.
