Public bug reported:
If a user keeps their session running (and just locks the screensaver)
over 3 or more days, the XFce desktop and XFce-ce4-menu take up all the
available vram and most of the available ram. I have the XFce-menu on
my taskbar.
At the point where XFce-ce4-menu is holding almost all of my vram and
50% of my ram hostage. The memory map says that 794M of vram is in the
heap. XFcedesktop has 391M of vram.
I know the work-around is to end the session every day or more
frequently, but I tend to work on multi-day projects such as text-books,
and it takes too long to recreate all of my work and research every day.
I refer back to the results of processes running in terminal windows,
and surfing histories that follow a specific path. I guess I don't need
to bore you with my logistics.
This is not just a moaning session. When it gets like this I cannot open
any applications and have to force the system down, or unplug it....
