Is it possible to change the title of this bug? Something like "compiz leaks memory with NVIDIA proprietary driver" (or similar)?

I just filed a new bug about compiz leaking memory and I ignored this one because the title said it only affected the Ring plugin which I never use.

On my machine, it's *really* bad. I see resident memory usage increase by ~3MB each time I open a window.

*Sigh*. So I can't run Compiz on my work machine, because it leaks memory like crazy with NVIDIA cards. And I can't run it at home, because it locks up my laptop with an ATI Mobility 9600. Are Intel cards the only ones that can actually run this damn thing? What gives?
