Clipboard Manager - Time to report it :)

You could also let the paste function write to a text file on the disk. Then, no additional RAM memory is used.

True. Desired function: provide system-wide clipboard, not dependent 
on apps running.

Alternative is to keep apps open, which is bound to take even more 
memory. What if I have "Big-App" running, and I want to copy from it 
to "Bigger-App"? I have to keep both open at the moment. On limited 
memory, that's far worse. (I speak from experience!)

I put this reference into the "bug report" (a.k.a. "opinion alert"):

Might also be worth comparing what our XFCE friends have done:
