Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-terminal
When using gnome-terminal over a prolonged period of time (especially
with eg. mplayer which outputs a status line via ncurses) the memory
usage becomes enormous. hundreds of MB's. The process only releases the
memory after the last terminal is closed. Somehow 'caching' the memory
of earlier terminals (which in my humble opinion is a memory leak).
** Affects: gnome-terminal (Ubuntu)
