Lately I have serious problem with X eating my memory too, top shows:

  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND

Just after logging in:

After starting Firefox, text editor and a console:

I have 1G RAM, i945GM/GMS video and my hw profile is:
ebf36068-3809-426c-ade0-d0c531b5b402

I use KDE + kdm. Logging out and in does not help. I have to logout, kill X11
(Ctrl+Alt+Backspace) and log in again to "fix" this. xorg.conf contains this for
my video:

Section "Device"
        VideoRam  65536 # forces memory to 64mb
        Driver      "intel"
        Identifier  "Videocard0"
        Option      "XAANoOffscreenPixmaps" "true"
        Option      "NoAccel" "false"
        Option      "DRI" "true"
        Option      "SWCursor" "false"
        Option      "XVideo" "true"
        # Option      "LinearAlloc" "6144" # Allows more memory for the
# offscreen allocator. This usually helps in situations where HDTV
# movies are required to play but not enough offscreen memory is
# usually available. Set this to 6144 for upto 1920x1080 HDTV support.
# Default 0KB (off).
        Option      "LinearAlloc" "8192"
EndSection

'rpm -qf intel_drv.so' gives 'xorg-x11-drv-i810-2.1.0-1.fc7'

This has not changed for at least 3 months. I usually suspended my laptop (with
hped=disable) to RAM / DISK (sometimes), so there were periods over a week
without problems. Now, X can eat so much memory in a matter of hours.

xrestop shows:

and a few others, nothing so big. I'm trying to find what trigers it, but with
no success so far.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 7 is nearing the end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 7. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '7'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 7's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 7 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. If possible, it is recommended that you try the newest available Fedora distribution to see if your bug still exists.

Please read the Release Notes for the newest Fedora distribution to make sure it will meet your needs:
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/

The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping

Fedora 7 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on June 13, 2008. 
Fedora 7 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not 
receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we 
are closing this bug. 

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version 
of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
