Package: mate-panel Version: 1.20.5-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation? mate-panel has memory leak, every few minutes it eats 1 mb of memory after few days it becoming a monster size of gagabytes. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? Normal usage, I'm using mate netspeed applet, mate sensors applet and system tray. Nothing unusual. Simple tests shows: axet@m3n:~$ while true; do date; memof $(pidof mate-panel); sleep 300; done Чт июл 23 20:54:59 MSK 2020 41 Чт июл 23 20:59:59 MSK 2020 43 Чт июл 23 21:04:59 MSK 2020 44 Чт июл 23 21:09:59 MSK 2020 45 Чт июл 23 21:14:59 MSK 2020 45 Чт июл 23 21:19:59 MSK 2020 46 Чт июл 23 21:24:59 MSK 2020 47 Чт июл 23 21:29:59 MSK 2020 48 Where memof is my custom script calculating PSS of running process in megabytes.
