> Virtual memory is not a relevant measure of anything useful.

That is neither necessarily true, nor necessarily untrue. While I have seen
instances of processes having huge VIRT that didn't correspond to real memory
usage (e.g. 256G VIRT with reasonable RES), most of the time there is a strong
correlation between VIRT and actual memory use. (The other problem with RES is
it doesn't account for "real" memory that has been swapped out, AFAIK. IMO both
are useful measurements.)

At any rate, RES was insane also. Here's the full htop line:

  1893 matthew    20   0 26.9G 17.1G 20308 S  0.3 54.5  3h10:59

I doubt I can provide any *new* information. I'm using slideshow wallpaper.
After a while (not sure if it is "always" or somewhat at random; I only just
upgraded to F29 about a week or so ago), memory usage grows to unreasonable
size. The only thing I know that's "new" is that this is still happening with
qt5-5.11.1-9.fc29.x86_64. (Based on inspecting the debuginfo sources, I *do*
have 224684 applied.)
