I am curious about your sluggishness though, as I've had xfce running
for days with multiple apps open and problems. Currently I've got 2 or
3 terminals, iceweasel, openoffice, xfmedia and gnucash all up and
running for about 5 days and am only using 460MB of my 1 GB total
mem/swap. Are you running one of the *dm's? if so which one?

gdm

try without gdm, just using startxfce4 from a command line
login. You'll have to kill gdm with `/etc/init.d/gdm stop`
first. startxfce4 should give you a more clean setup in terms of what
is loaded by default. might help.

I haven't followed this thread closely, but would like to add the
following.

See: http://bugs.debian.org/376177

The offenders are xfdesktop and xfce4-menu-plugin. To avoid the memory
leak(s) until the problem is fixed, don't use xfdesktop or the xfce4
menu plugin.

I read somewhere that the memory leak(s) may be fixed in version 4.4.1,
so perhaps the version in unstable will fix the problem... please add to
the bug report what you discover.
