Comment:

I will close this ticket, since unless I am very much mistaken this is an issue with the X server (or a driver), since it does not go away when VirtualBox is shut down. We might take this up with someone familiar with the relevant parts of the X.Org source code though.

  • Ticket #15892 – Description

    initial v15  
    552. Minimize the VM several times (~25-50 times?)
    663. After a while Xorg on the host will be using a lot of memory (>1GB on my system which has 8 GB of RAM)

     8Update: since the leaks do not go away when !VirtualBox is terminated we will treat this as an issue in X.Org (or drivers) and not investigate it ourselves.  We might take this up with someone familiar with the relevant parts of the X.Org source code though.
