Tormod Volden : Doing a backtrace on compiz over SSH does not give result, compiz won't crash. However, after 2 minutes, compiz use 65% of all the computer memory and 31% of the CPU ressources. After 5 minutes, the computer hard drive is working hard and commands over ssh are VERY slow to achieve, ps aux take 10 seconds to show all active process, each process appear one by one, slowly. It looks like compiz take all available memory and expand until all the memory and swap get completely full. This test has been realized on a 2 Gb memory computer, 2,40 Ghz Core 2 duo CPU.
