Ironically, I'm the one who originally filed that bug ... but the
problem had seemed to go away, only to return after the upgrade to
17.10.
What's your preferred profiler for this kind of bug, and can it be
attached to a running process?

Title:
gnome-shell leaks memory (> 1 GiB), becomes janky
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
After 19 days, gnome-shell has 1.1 GiB of memory resident, and tasks
such as switching between workspaces are noticeably janky compared to
the buttery smoothness immediately after a fresh login.
