I upgraded my laptop earlier this week, some days before the final Lucid
release. libvirt-bin is installed though I don't actively use it (only
accasionaly for testing purposes, but atm no vm's are installed), though
libvirt has been installed for a long time earlier. Problem only now
arises after this upgrade to Lucid and after i left it runnig for longer
than around 8 hours.

Yesterday I booted my laptop in the morning and left it running all
night. This morning I came to my desk and found my laptop unresponsive,
having to wait a huge time beofre being able to unlock my screen and
seeing what was happening. I'm attaching the screenshot I took from top,
evidence of what I think is a huge memory leak.
