I just found out that this is actually NVidia driver bug. I am not sure in what specific version of the driver this bug was fixed, but after updating few minutes ago the driver using ubuntu-x-swat ppa to 260.19.26 beta (https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa) there is no memory leak any more.
Can some of the other posters give it a try so that we can close this bug as invalid? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/656590 Title: mplayer uses enormous ammount of memory when ASS fonts are displayed -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
