Hi Eric,

this release is totally unusable while running in UXA. System eats lot of
memory, including swapping. Is this that, reported earlier, ,,memory leak''? As
a result X are really slow and lot of lockups occur (everything freeze for a few
seconds). At the end I can't even switch to text console, but system reacts on
power button and it goes down successfully. With EXA there's no such issue:
total system memory usage around 40%, no lockups.

If it's not know issue I will try to bisect it down.
