I tried that. Xwayland's memory usage increases without an increase in pixmaps
memory count according to xrestop.
Simply using a sdl1, or gtk2 application or firefox slowly makes Xwayland
memory usage increase.

When I close firefox, the total pixmap memory usage according to xrestop
decreases but xwayland never frees memory. It seems to just use more as I use
my computer.
Switching windows sometimes causes an increase. It even suddenly used 200k more
while I switched between gnome-terminal and firefox.

In either case, the reading according to xrestop seems to be stable. No
increases there unless I open more applications.
