Public bug reported: When running xcompmgr with the below command a huge memory leak occurs so fast it sucks up soo much memory i said 5hrs or less i didn't keep track of time, however when running with just the -a option with no effects but server side compositing there seems to be NO memory leak. The leak is so huge on my 512mb machine it went up to 81% full, and when i killed it it went down to about 51%, only a logout and login will cure it or a reboot.
