After a reboot, it took a very long time to repeat.

After several hours, (read happy kids), the slow drag with trail
repeated.

Xorg is using 21.1% of memory and it takes tens of minutes to repeat,
not hours!

After exiting Freecell, the xorg memory use stays over 20%.

So, it appears there is a memory leak, somewhere.

What can I do to help with this?
