Unity compiz and Xorg processes are not growing, this seems like a KDE + Nvidia + Xorg issue.
I tested firefox without hardware acceleration, but still growing kwin and xorg processes. You can easily reproduce this, when you start in KDE the system monitor krunner (Ctrl+Esc), then search for kwin. Do not start other applications and watch the process memory growing. Thank you for the nvidia-link, I'll report it, when I have more time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1402551 Title: High memory usage of Xorg and kwin after Xorg security updates [nvidia] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-304-updates/+bug/1402551/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
