[Bug 376092] Re: Running Out of Memory with UXA

[Jonathan Michalon]

I'm just running a live Jaunty, architecture i386 (my installed system
is amd64).

This is the xorg.conf I need to reproduce the problem:

Section "Device"
        Identifier      "Configured Video Device"
        Option         "AccelMethod" "UXA"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
        Identifier      "Configured Monitor"
        Option         "PreferredMode" "1920x1200"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
        Identifier      "Default Screen"
        Monitor         "Configured Monitor"
        Device          "Configured Video Device"
EndSection

I've run a little my bash loop and now free shows:
$ free
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:       1018452     960456      57996          0       2936     714888
-/+ buffers/cache:     242632     775820
Swap:      1959920     410200    1549720

One could see that the swap is largely used.
I'm running compiz with the default settings (so changing nothing to the defaults as compiz is automatically launched).
The PreferredMode line makes my display show 1920x1200 as I've an external display and the default would use a resolution supported by both screens (1024×768).

So it's related neither to architecture nor to kernel.
