Hello,
I had lately the same problems. So this might help or not:
I use kde from cvs right after the annoncement of alpha 1.1.
Lately i used a lot of "many windows on several desktops".
I also used a new freshly released application , a gtk+ one.
The same problems as you arised: disk usage grows and grows to the 
point when, suddenly, a simple operation takes minutes and finally, the 
machine locks.
It also happened under blackbox.
So I thought, it's this new programs which has a bug, possibly with my 
967 nvidia drivers because it uses a lot of OpenGL.(I didn't take the 
chance to upgrade to the last versions).
BUT, as I read your comments, I recalled I was using Konqueror 
everytime I experienced this behavior (even under blackbox) along with 
this gtk app.
So, wether it's this app, and my comment is useless, or it's 
konqueror or whatever is launched with it.
So I'll do a lot of this gtk app under blackbox without konqueror this 
afternoon .Then I 'll do a lot of this gtk app under blackbox with 
konqueror than, eventually, I'll upgrade my cvs version if it still 
happens .
bye.

:-) My question is this - is it X or is it KDE?  I agree that it's the 
GUI that 
:-) is the possible source of the memory leak.  I'm curious to find out 
from 
:-) other users; a) what gui do they use most often, and b) what, if 
any, memory 
:-) usage do they see be used (is it diminishing at a certain rate over 
time)?  
:-) This would most likely give a better idea of a possible memory 
leaks source.
:-) 
:-) Just a thought.  Curtis Rey
