Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

I'm running 8.04 x64 , and every morning I find my gnome-panel 
(1:2.22.1.3-0ubuntu1) taking up an absurd amount of memory.  It seems to be 
using more than half of my 4gigs of memory and 2 gigs of swap.  I have three 
panels running.  One with just a taskbar and clock.  One with only launcher 
buttons, and one with the following components:
 
menu button
deskbar applet
weather applet
clock
volume control
notification area
post-it notes
logout button
screen lock button

If I 'killall gnome-panel' a ton of my memory is freed up.  Also, very
often when I do this, the deskbar-applet fails to load.  Usually once it
fails to load, re-killing the panel will fix it.
