Not sure if it's the same problem the bug reporter has (the bug is
already rather old, after all), but recently I noticed excessive memory
by gtk-gnash when playing videos on YouTube.  For instance, after
playing the (less than 3 minutes long) clip at
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vl89g2SwMh4 gtk-gnash's resident memory
size is over 800 Megabytes.

This is with 0.8.11~git20130903-2 from unstable.

Regards,
        Sven
