Binary package hint: gnome-system-monitor

System monitor grows in size when left open. In my case it was started from the gnome panel. The panel applet does not exhibit this problem but the monitor window application does. When left open for about 72 hours, it has grown to 723MB on this system.

Problem observed on Ubuntu 8.04 with gnome-system-monitor 2.22.3-0ubuntu2.
