Public bug reported:

Since I upgrading to 12.10, Compiz is using more than 400 M of memory.
This is not a memory leak because the amount of memory is high at startup and 
does not increases so much. It can temporally goes over 500 M though.

This is reported against Unity because I don't reproduce this on Gnome
Classic.

Note that xorg is also using a lot of memory (around 200 M, instead of
50)
