Memory leak from GNOME extension causes gradual RAM growth

RAM usage steadily climbs over time after installing GNOME extensions. The 'Blur my shell' extension leaks memory incrementally, leading to gradual system degradation as available memory decreases.

Run ram-compare tool to create snapshots of memory usage at startup and after runtime. Compare results to identify which processes show memory growth. Disable the leaking extension. Monitor RAM usage over time to confirm the leak is resolved.
