I have tried the mulitload ppa and I can't say the excessive memory usage is going down. Compiz takes up 1.5-2.0 GiB memory after a few hours. Using the classical Gnome interface (with effects), compiz (not downgraded) takes up 20 MiB of memory. -- You received this bug notification because you

I have the same problem. Compiz is taking up over 2 GiB of memory and after a unity --replace the used memory goes down. This problem makes the desktop after some time useless. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu.

The issue does not seem to be driver-related, as it has been reported from NVidia, confirmed on ATI (comment 5), and Intel (myself). As per comment 6, it is most likely to be a problem related to Unity, having a serious memory leak or something like that. -- You received this bug notification
