After a while (say, a month) of normal activity, my swap space becomes almost entirely eaten up; the problem can be solved by restarting xmonad (`mod-q').

The problem could well be `xmobar' or `X' itself.

X11 seems unlikely. Memory leaks *are* possible (but unlikely) depending on what you have in your xmonad.hs.

(For what it's worth, xmonad isn't even visible on my machine if I sort top by virtual process size. But it's only been running for a couple days thanks to system updates. I don't use xmobar since I run xmonad under xfce.)
