There're 2 mails which didn't get yet into the ML because they contain
a screenshot, and mailman complained about a suspiciously big size,
and sent them to moderation. The TL;DR is that Xorg takes 100GB,
however xresttop shows only a few dozens of MBs. Per my understanding
this means that Xorg does not hold a memory allocated for some client,
but rather have an actual memory leak. So I recommended trying latest
Xorg, and reporting a bug if it doesn't help.
