Same here with indicator-multiload 0.2-0ubuntu2. I'm on Ubuntu 12.10

I left my computer on over the holidays. About midway through I noticed
I was using 3 GB of swap. Didn't investigate, restarted.
Today I was using swap again and noticed indicator-multiload was the
I have the exactly same experience with indicator-multiload - sometimes
it goes completely crazy for no obvious reason and eats up all memory -
but this has nothig to do with possible leak in compiz, I suppose.

I can confirm this too. After 4 days of using compiz it took about 700
MB of RSS memory (that makes it the biggest memory consumer on my 12.04
desktop). It's really annoying bug that causes my system swapping a lot

It can be temporarily solved by executing unity
I turn off my computer on weekends.
On Wednesday morning I have indicator-multiload already sucking almost 2Gb.
My machine is up-to-date as of Friday 24 - indicator-multiload

This has not been updated since August 2011?
Please, re-open this bug.

Even without indicator-multiload running i still get a steady leak.
Googling indicates that x64 systems are maybe affected more.
if i have a session of system monitor open i can simply open the dash
and work with the filters to see compiz increase in size.

The bad thing about this isn't necessarily that compiz leaks memory, but
you can basically watch your desktop getting slower and slower. If I
reboot Ubuntu/Unity after a week, this feels like a new machine for me.
The next day compiz seems to iterate over more objects than it needs to
already.

Agreed. Same issue. I had to reset because of swap thrashing for about
40 min. And I've got 4GB. I'm betting people with less memory are

Love Unity, hate Compiz. Isn't Compiz only handling the indicators and
some other small things? Can it not be replaced? I've lost 2 hours of
battery life to this, even in Unity2d. Switching back to gnome 2 until

Hi, we've landed a bunch of memory leak fixes this week (and the past
few weeks) in both the dash and across Unity. I believe that this bug
can now be closed in favour of more specific bugs with tests against
specific areas (i.e. open the quicklist five times, compiz leaks 5MB),

I am also experiencing very high memory usage with compiz, but unlike
most reports I'm not using any kind of system monitor, dashboard or
whatever thing. I'm using a normal Gnome session with nothing but a few
application icons on my panel. Over the past weekend, the memory usage
went up to 2.5GB.

Seems that the patch Michael submitted made it into mainline (that's my
guess) which fixes a pixbuf issue, (constant increase without use) but
that there's outstanding issues with lenses, opening the dash, and
various other scenarios, which seem to all require use of the system. A

Seems to be a pretty big problem given my PC doesn't have a lot of RAM.
I'm currently using a GeForce 460 with the proprietary driver. Every
time I open the dash the RAM usage of Compiz raises about 0.3 MBs and
holds until I shutdown the PC.

I confirm Frank comment. Opening and closing dash repeatedly makes

Andreas,
Wish I could say the same...I'm still seeing a slow but steady creep in
memory on the Compiz process, and opening and closing Dash (with the
Super key, pressed repeatedly) shows a regular climb of about 0.5mb per
open/close. This is on a relatively new computer (Phenom Quad, 4GB Ram)
Unity is really slow right now... Unity team, please update!!

Hi, I have a HP Probook 4525s, ATI Mobility RadeonTM HD 4250. First I installed
FGLRX driver and have this bug, compiz start with 40 Mb and after some work go
to 1 Gb or more...
Now I'm using the Open source driver, and compiz use at startup 25/26 Mb, and
maximum 50/60 with many windows open.
Makes using Unity on notebooks with 1Gb of RAM very difficult. Seeing as
this has been open since February, I think it makes sense to ask whether
this will be closed before the next release of Ubuntu? Or should I just
install Fedora on my notebook instead, if I want a nice interface?

Michael Hofmann's patch is actually pretty amazing. I hope it gets
accepted into Unity proper, both for Natty and upstream.
I've been running for hours, and my Compiz memory is ~47mb. That's as
low as its ever been.
There is still a leak using Lenses and the Dash. It isn't all that big,
but
Over in #779717 (comment #18), Michael Hofmann has a patch for Unity
that seems to fix the memory leak that is so noticeable when indicator-
multiload or system load indicator are running.
