Well, add another to the list.

I am running Gutsey on a HP DV2200 w/ a geforce go 7200 and I also get this bug. I'm using custom effects from Compiz Fusion as well. System Monitor shows compiz.real eating 330Virtual and 310 resident memory.

My memory keeps climbing and it will eventually get to the point where I am out of system memory and and my HDD starts thrashing from the swap. This eventually leads to a complete system crash and I have to restart Ubuntu completely.

I agree with Chris. This is a catastrophic memory leak. It really needs to be fixed.
