The Greeter keeps eating lots of memory after logging in
Originally created by @intrigeri on #12092 (Redmine)
The test suite started failing on feature/stretch in Jenkins (sysadmin#12088 (closed))
once we’ve merged the new Greeter in there. I’ve noticed that a full
GNOME session is kept running as the Debian-gdm user once one has
logged in. This seems like a big waste of memory. Can we somehow free
that RAM, to keep supporting older hardware?
As part of this, revert 895387ec.
