I switch off all the extensions except for Ubuntu ones. Every
lock/unlock action raises the memory usage by ~10MB until it reaches
~280MB. Super-A (app overview) raised further the usage.

After a while something happend (Not lock/unlock or Super-A) and now the
memory usage of gnome-shell is 302MB and is not changing.

What is the normal memory usage of gnome-shell? Is it normal (what I
have described) or it should stay at the beginning level?
