Summary of the above: This is the latest ubuntu with the latest gnome-shell, on x86. Gnome shell is displayed usig 1gb of memory use after two and a half days (mostly idle). This was an unusually good run: usually it reaches this level after only one day. I have a very similar setup elsewhere, which doesn't have the problem. I suspect the problem to be in user configuration; apart from my home dir, this was a clean install of last november. My home dir is much older; it stems from april last year.
