It is definitely the same as #483719 - which is classified as a duplicate of #969359.
So should I mark as duplicate? I cannot reproduce. If it happens again I will obtain a backtrace following the instructions at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash and upload the backtrace (as an attachment) to the bug report. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/990695 Title: gnome-settings-daemon leaks memory / 100+ percent cpu Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: gnome-settings-daemon leaks memory ( adds about 1 MB per minute ) Observed process use 100% + CPU utilization on one core for more than 30 minutes. Memory grew from about 200 MB to 390 MB during this 30 minute period. Process status was reported as "Sleeping/futex_wait_queme_me". However, as soon as I typed 'ubuntu-bug' in the terminal it switched to Running ~ and then dropped its CPU usage to 60% and gave back 100MB of memory. Then while typing this comment here.... it went back up to 102% and started consuming memory again.
