I know this is old and most of you must be running 11.10 now, but I just installed 11.04 and I'm having this problem. The last version of libcairo2 in the repos is 1.11.3, which gives me a ram usage about 1.5Gb just after login. I've forced version 1.10.2 and everything is fine now, ram under 500Mb
