Hi all,
I am running Xfbdev on ARM9.Over the server after running blackbox I am
running the  following script
while [ 1 ]
do
xcalc &
xeyes &
sleep 5
pkill xcalc
pkill xeyes
done

I am getting huge memory leak.Here is my log for meminfo.This is for a very
small period of time. Over an hour or so i am getting memory leak of 7 to 8
MBs.
