Comment 4 for bug 1314787

Same here, trusty and fglrx, eventually xorg eats up 3.5 gb of RAM and I have to restart. Otherwise it will eventually lock up the entire system (can't alt-ctrl out to a terminal). However I can still ssh into the machine, but xorg refuses to be killed.

xrestop doesn't show anything with more than 35MB of pixmaps, maybe 80MB total. X seems to leak memory when using graphically intense programs (e.g. a game that uses hardware acceleration). I compiled the latest fglrx driver from AMD (ahead of the repository fglrx) and the same thing happens. This all did not happen before the upgrade to trusty...
