Memory leak with 3D acceleration with Ubuntu lens -> duplicate of #13526

Description

I have a Windows 7 host and Ubuntu 14.04 guest. If I enable 3D acceleration, there is a huge memory leak (about 100 MB per second) when the Ubuntu main system menu (Unity lens) is open. It is apparently related to the blurring effect, since there is no leak if I disable 3D acceleration and Ubuntu just shows a plain colour background.

The strangest thing is that I can see the memory being eaten away in my host's performance monitor, but the guest's performance monitor doesn't show any problem and the memory use is stable there. I hope this can be a clue as to where the problem lies.

I can work with 3D disabled but the system is totally unusable with it enabled, since the memory leak is so severe.
