Comment 225 for bug 351186

i've been using the patched xorg, and xorg reports 3% memory usage
after 8 hours of uptime (just updated today). I'll check back in the
morning.

There are some weird artifacts for a fraction of a second when drawing
windows, though. Still, better than those horrible delays.
