Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-applets
multiload-applet-2 memory usage appears to grow without bounds:
:; uptime
09:37:18 up 13 days, 20:46, 7 users, load average: 0.10, 0.27, 0.27
:; ps auxw | grep multiload

/usr/lib/gnome-applets/multiload-applet-2
--oaf-activate-iid=OAFIID:GNOME_MultiLoadApplet_Factory --oaf-ior-fd=25
:; kill 14684
(after it restarted)
:; ps auxw | grep multiload

/usr/lib/gnome-applets/multiload-applet-2
--oaf-activate-iid=OAFIID:GNOME_MultiLoadApplet_Factory --oaf-ior-fd=25
(about 20 minutes later)
:; ps auxw | grep multiload
bdowning 10424 0.3 0.5 191560 10656 ? S 09:35 0:04
/usr/lib/gnome-applets/multiload-applet-2
--oaf-activate-iid=OAFIID:GNOME_MultiLoadApplet_Factory --oaf-ior-fd=25
I did not open the system monitor window after I killed it, the memory
growth happens over time naturally.
