I swapped my environment (gnome-fallback, chromium-browser, evolution, libreoffice, gnome-terminal) for a vanilla env of ctwm, xterm and firefox. After 4 days the memory usage stayed at 0.6%. Confirm that it is not a bug in xorg but in one of the other apps, as suggested by Daniel. So I need to

Yes, and since it could be the desktop env, the gnome terninal, anywhere really, I'm going to try real primitive: Tom's Window Mgr (twm) with an xterm. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu.

Well, it's not libreoffice nor evolution mail client. And I also tried Unity with X instead of fallback, no better, so it doesn't look like metacity. I'll try more experiments tomorrow -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to

i don't think it is libreoffice. I last restarted X 4 days ago, and memory usage has gone from under 1% to 8%. Libreoffice has stayed unchanged at 459376K total (with 2 docs open). metacity has grown but not conclusively. So I'll give it another week -- You received this bug notification because

I restarted the server, monitored it for a few days. The results were inconclusive, so doing more careful logging over a longer period to see if I can find a clear culprit :-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg-server
