Same here, trusty and fglrx, eventually xorg eats up 3.5 gb of RAM and I have to restart. Otherwise it will eventually lock up the entire system (can't alt-ctrl out to a terminal). However I can still ssh into the machine, but xorg refuses to be killed.
xrestop doesn't show anything with more than 35MB of pixmaps, maybe 80MB total. X seems to leak memory when using graphically intense programs (e.g. a game that uses hardware acceleration). I compiled the latest fglrx driver from AMD (ahead of the repository fglrx) and the same thing happens. This all did not happen before the upgrade to trusty... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1314787 Title: Memory leak To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1314787/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
