Found what might be an issue (or perhaps a tool).

Yesterday, I lost all my widgets 2 times. It also happened again this morning. Reboot does not return them, identical activity in Activity Manager does not return them. I can add them all back without issue.

I have been running my own file for a week or two, and swapolube for the last couple of days. I have been using the "kill allocating task" setting (to kill the requesting app).

What I am thinking has happened is that one of my widgets has a memory leak, and hildon-home (or is it hildon-desktop) gets killed once the leak gets too big? This might cause the disappearance of all my widgets.

My first suspicion is calendar-home widget, followed by mycontacts and maybe omweather. I believe those are the only widgets that were updated recently. I need to keep an eye on this to see if I can isolate it.

Anyone else seeing anything similar?
