Bug Description
Binary package hint: terminator
I've been running terminator for more than a week (I suspend/resume my laptop everyday) and now terminator memory usage is very high. top output :
21557 simon 20 0 602m 177m 18m S 0 2.3 18:57.39 /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/terminator
I currently have 2 tabs open, the first being divided in 8 and the other in 3. When I try subdivide one of the sections, I get this error :
Unable to start shell:/bin/bash
I am probably hitting a ulimit or something related. Additional info :

I just closed all but one of the division and the memory usage doesn't drop. Top output :
