--- Comment #7 from James Jurack jorenko+wine@gmail.com 2007-12-10 21:48:00 --- Disabling compiz-fusion does seem to mitigate the problem for the most part. I've had one crash since, but it wasn't accompanied by any out-of-memory error messages. I guess this could be a leak in either compiz-fusion or wine, or perhaps just a strange interaction between the two?
