Bug Description
Every day of uptime, the amount of memory unity-panel-service has reserved increases by ~80 MB.
After six days of uptime of this Desktop computer, I end up with:
VSZ RSS TTY STAT START TIME COMMAND
899184 495224 ? Sl Jun18 81:23 /usr/lib/
When I run strace on the process it turns out that it accesses /etc/localtime as well as files below /usr/share/
This may be related to bug #779185.
