Comment 9 for bug 154504

I tried removing the Deskbar applet and Workrave ... those didn't help. I'm running with the clock applet removed now too, I'll report how it goes. I've noticed that the memory-blowout & hang only seems to happen when I'm actually using the machine ... ie if I leave it logged in all day while I'm not using the desktop, I come back and gnome-panel is still responsive with sensible memory usage. I think its something I'm doing while actively using the UI which seems to trigger this bug.
