Comment 40 for bug 376092

Please open a new bug if you are having different problems, this bug is very specific to using GL compositing managers under UXA only. If you are having memory leaks outside of using compiz/mutter/kwin 3d compositing it is most likely a problem elsewhere that needs to be addressed.

xorg-edgers has been updated so mesa for both jaunty and karmic include the upstream fixes now if you can test it Jonathan. I am getting ~400MB gem objects after 27 hours uptime now and the fixes look good to me, I would wrap around to a negative number after 1.5gb or so in 12 hours previously. I have been using metacity's xrender compositing for the past month and a half that I've had this problem and gem objects didnt go over 220MB even after weeks of uptime using that.
