Bug Description

I recently did a fresh install of ubuntu 16.04, then installed mate. With only gnome terminal running, gtk-window-decorator is using 6.3 gigabytes of resident memory.

$ uptime
 16:10:01 up 1 day, 2:05, 4 users, load average: 1.85, 2.17, 2.36
(with firefox open, the load seems high too - Xorg, compiz, mate-session, dbus-daemon....)
