Package: general
Severity: normal


Short story:
When using kde 4.3, Xorg process grows from 35 MB of RAM to 600+ MB after ~10 hours... also the CPU usage gets over 90%

Long Story:
I have done a fresh install of my debian 3 weeks ago, to switch from i386 to amd64 and installed the same stuff i had back then (using sid also)
I installed kde 4.3.1 from experimental repos, and i noticed that after using the system for about ~8 hours, it becomes slow and unresponsive.

Digging about the issue, i found that Xorg was growing in resources as hours went by.

I tried changing Nvidia driver to test, i used 180, 185, 190 beta. Also tried the nv one. Tried going to Xorg 7.3, etc. nothing changed...

Finally i decided to try if gnome was having the same problems, so i installed it, and it's been 3 days since the computer is on, and Xorg is still consuming 35 mb as it should, so i'm pretty sure something related to KDE is causing this.

Now, i decided to file a bug here instead of kde, since this does not happen in Ubuntu (where i'm also using kde 4.3.1)

The main problem is that if the system goes beyond the 10 hours, it gets almost unusable, and i have to go to a virtual terminal and kill Xorg to restart it :(

Any info you think is needed just ask :)

With pleasure.
