I believe this bug has nothing to do with Unity, supposedly it is a kernel bug 
due to the following:
1. I use XFCE 4.8, and have exactly the same bug. With the same XFCE 4.8 and 
older kernel 2.6.35.25 I had 17% memory usage (out of 1.7 Gb total memory) - no 
active user programs running, now I have 72%!!! with 2.6.38.8 kernel. It is 
interesting that system monitor doesn't show any program consuming more than 21 
mb or RAM.
2. I have ATI video chip HD4200 on the motherboard.
3. My hardware is OK - I have memtest running on it during 24 hours+, 55 passes 
without any error.
