Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

Memory used by clock-applet grows without limits. 
My panel has autohide set. 

clock-applet takes on average 0.48 MB per each unhide/hide.

For example, at the moment it takes 175 MB on my machine, few hours
after it was restarted ("memory" as reported by gnome-system-monitor).

Together with other gnome-panel related leaks it easily grows to few GB
over time and I my system grinds to halt swapping.

Ubuntu 10.10

$ apt-cache policy gnome-panel
