Sorry for being late to the party...  :)

I'm a Conky user (simple analysis program). Conky auto-starts at login,
and I constantly monitor its output.

I've been aware of a significant mem leak in Unity, since I first
installed Natty, but was unaware of this bug report, until today.

Luckily, I take frequent screenshots, so it was an easy matter to look
back through my portfolio for mem usage.

Here are some representative readings of Compiz usage, from 18-Feb
(first install) through 9-Apr (today):

2 min 57 sec = 61.7 M
1 hr 53 min = 103 M
2 hr 48 min = 146 M
3 hr 10 min = 149 M
4 hr 31 min = 182 M

This is a fair sampling, and clearly demonstrates (based on the
screenshot dates) that the mem leak has been consistent and ever-present
from the start.

As Doug McMahon noted, it increases over time, regardless of user
activity.

I'll subscribe to this bug report, and watch it closely.  If/when
change(s) occur, I'll report back.

Thanks!
