but i didnt found a way to fix it yet.<br>
but i noticed that it does happen with Gnome-classic and Gnome3 too,<br>
but not in the same speed than with cinnamon. (currently 7,4GB)<br>

i use the fglrx-updates driver.<br>
<br>
<br>
(i currently use the [Radeon HD 7660D] one as far as my system says)<br>
