https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45721 Summary: High Compiz memory usage, eventual crash. Product: Drivers Version: 2.5 Kernel Version: 3.4.0-030400-generic Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Tree: Mainline Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P1 Component: Video(DRI - non Intel) AssignedTo: drivers_video-dri@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ReportedBy: thefarcry118@xxxxxxxxx Regression: No Compiz begins to increase memory usage from 105.6 MB at Boot to 250MB+ after an hour of use, eventually Compiz crashes and logging out and fixes the issue. >From boot Compiz memory usage Sky rockets and goes up until the proccess crashes; this can happen randomly. Chrome becomes to be sluggish and there's considerable latency between input and final result of those actions; simple usages such as typing can have a 1-5 second delay depending on system boot time. After a un determined amount of time the process (Compiz) crashes and typing compiz --replace & does not effect the memory usage and sluggishness. I believe Compiz is an OpenGL wrapper for Unity and is bundled with NVIDIA drivers. In addition the recent NVIDIA 302.17 drivers seem to have caused the issue.
