I have this issue while playing streamed video, and it can take sometimes less than 10 seconds after starting playing video when the system becomes unstable.
Here is the system log, when unity decides to kill this process. VLC takes 3.5Gb or RAM when it's killed! http://paste.ubuntu.com/603010/ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/743323 Title: vlc memory leak -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
