So in your opinion using X as a cache for 500 MB of pixmaps is dumb. I
tend to agree, but it is reasonable to expect that when the app closes
and the pixmaps are freed, all that memory is returned to the OS? In
other words, is a bug that under this usage mode the memory asigned to X
grows monotonically?
