Bug ID: 493889
Summary: Plasmashell excess ram usage regression
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 6.1.5
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Application Menu (Kicker)
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: zackme...@outlook.com
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
Plasmashell ram usage continues to grow without ever going down after using
Application menu by hovering over the entries in a motion going up and down.
TO REPRODUCE
1. Open application menu
2. Hover with mouse cursor over the entries in a fast/moderate-speed motion
going up and down
3. Monitor increased ram usage (Sometimes the menu along plasmashell as a whole
lags too before the increase in ram usage)
OBSERVED RESULT
I managed to make plasmashell consume as much as 3GB but you can even go
higher.
EXPECTED RESULT
I except plasmashell to not consume more ram than what is truly needed or to at
least reuse what has been cached in ram
without duplicating any objects in memory.
