The video at the top of this bug should probably be removed because: 1. It's 6.5 years old so doesn't represent any supported GNOME code.
2. It shows nonstandard extensions in use. 3. It shows memory usage only increasing by around 100MB per image. If you have a couple of monitors or just very high resolution wallpapers then that is just how big they are uncompressed, not a bug. The last few images will be cached in memory and attributed to the gnome-shell process. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1423773 Title: [memory leak] Gnome-Shell don't free ram when changing the wallpaper Status in GNOME Shell: Unknown Status in mutter package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Sorry for my bad english, here is the link to see the error by yourself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O53tt-6v81Y&feature=youtu.be To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-shell/+bug/1423773/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
