Public bug reported: Gnome-shell slowly grows in memory over time. The mouse will start to stutter and keyboard input repeats the same character many times. After a day or two, I have to reboot or my desktop environment crashes.
I have disabled all extensions except for the Ubuntu default ones. I'm willing to help debug if needed.
