Xorg memory leak

[easydisk]

Hi there, 



I think there is a real memory leak with xorg in Ubuntu 6.06



Here are 2 examples from a machine running xorg for about 1.5 a 2
day's



the 'top' command

PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND

8849 root      15   0 1612m 699m 1352 S  3.5 69.3  29:59.43 Xorg



PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND

25742 root      15   0 1438m 620m 3828 S  3.0 61.4  38:15.68 Xorg



the 'free -m' command gives:



total       used       free     shared    buffers    
cached

Mem:          1010        994         15          0         45       
323



and for swap:

Swap:          964          862        102





Even after running xorg for one night (12 hours) without no big
application running (only dekstop manager KDE, amsn and xmms) the
memory usage is growing to 450 Mbyte !



Xorg is becoming slow, stop responing for 4 - 10seconds (even no mouse
pointer)



And I think I'm nog the only one with the problem, see bugs: 36348
39825 



Is it possible to run xorg 6.90 (from ubuntu 5.10) instead of 7.0 from
ubuntu 6.06?
