Re-running with compositing disabled does indeed reduce the memory use 
by a factor of almost 4: to 2GB total. Individual web processes are now 
being reported to use about ~1/5 of of the memory in g-s-m.

I wonder if my high-DPI display is causing the extra overhead when it 
is enabled compared to what you are seeing?
