Comment 16 for bug 890441

Ok, I did some tests...

1. When nautilus does NOT draw the desktop, memory use stays put at around 20M and does not grow. This is without moving the extension directory, so Dropbox and Kupfer could still be active.

2. If I move aside that extensions directory and restart nautilus, if it is set to draw the desktop, the growing memory behavior continues... again, even if the extensions are not in place.

I attached a valgrind dump that represents #2 state: with extensions removed but desktop drawn. Given that without desktop drawn, the memory use is normal, I didn't see a point in attaching another log. I hope that's ok.
