The problem seems to continue. hud-service is using 85% of my memory (I have 32 GB !!) and 100% CPU. killall or kill does not kill it.

Restarting hud-service drops it memory usage to about 100-150 MB, on the next day it's using already 227 MB of RAM. I'm using Ubuntu 13.10 for developing Qt-based application. Most of the time following applications started and used: Qt Creator, Qt Linguist, Qt Designer; gnome-terminal; gitk, git gui, cmake-gui; Firefox; Pidgin. In the tray there are: System Load Indicator, Nagstamon (v0.9.11 from official site), shutter, remmina. Also I use Yandex.Music and Grooveshark web-apps.
