Memory leaks in Gnome

[Worik]

Friends

Has anybody else noticed serious memory leaks in Gnome?

I need to reboot my computer daily, if I neglect to log out and in to 
Gnome, as my swap and memory go to 100% usage.

Additional to leaks are the infeasible memory usage of some of the applets.

clock-applet 15.9MB
mixer-applet  17.4MB

are just two examples.  There over 30MB for a clock and volume control. 
  Whew!
