Bug ID: 485136 Summary: Quickly mouse-hovering kickoff's sidebar momentarily freezes plasma and leaks memory Classification: Plasma Product: plasmashell Version: 6.0.3 Platform: unspecified OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: minor Priority: NOR Component: Application Launcher (Kickoff) Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org Reporter: matheus.scattolinanse...@outlook.com CC: mikel5...@gmail.com, noaha...@gmail.com Target Milestone: 1.0 Created attachment 168220 --> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=168220&action=edit a recording of kickoff freezing SUMMARY This causes plasma to freeze, using a lot of CPU and memory. When plasma unfreezes the allocated memory is not freed until the process is killed. It can freeze plasma for multiple minutes, and it ends up allocating gigabytes of RAM if you keep hovering STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open kickoff 2. Quickly hover up and down over the sidebar OBSERVED RESULT The longer this is done, the more memory ends up being used SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: 6.8.0 KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0 Qt Version: 6.6.3 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION There's a recording attached with a systemmonitor window on the background to keep track of the used memory -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
