Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xfce4-terminal

xfce4-terminal slowly consumes an enormous amount of memory. I have it
running since about 3 hours right now, and "top" tells me it has 420 MB
reserved memory with only 4 tabs open. The number keeps increasing
slowly.

The problem easily reproducible: Just start xfce4-terminal, leave it
running and monitor memory usage.

There was a memory leak in xfce4-terminal related to vte fixed in Gentoo
some time ago, I don't know if this might be related. Link:
