Public bug reported:
This may not be a bug at all, but thought I'd report it anyway.
I am NOT reporting a memory leak - at least, I don't think so. I am
simply reporting this:
When I start a desktop session, Compiz uses 85M of memory. It stays
there as long as I *do not open the Dash*.
Once I open the Dash - simply pushing the Ubuntu button, and then
closing immediately - the memory usage climbs to ~120-150.
If I go through every page in the Dash and open every sub-page and see
every icon available, the memory usage clibms to ~185M.
Re-visiting the Dash, no matter how often, doesn't cause a further
increase, but I'm not certain the Dash should use ~100M of RAM all by
itself. I'm not sure how much it *should* use, but it just seems a bit
excessive.
