Some more information:
Problem occurs only with Firefox and only with *my* profile.
I created a new empty profile and the problem was gone.
After migrating all bookmarks and user.js to the new profile, problem is there again.
Disabling all extensions in FF does not help. So it must be one of my settings (maybe in user.js) that is causing the problem.
In any case, the dash/hud should not be so fragile that memory leaks are caused by specific application settings.
Such tight coupling between applications and OS or desktop seems to be problematic.
If you can't control it, better skip the eye candy and stick with simpler solutions....
