Bug ID: 373274
Summary: ksmserver eats memory and does not lock screen
Product: ksmserver
Version: 5.8.4
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: l.lu...@kde.org
Reporter: johann.jacobs...@directbox.com
Target Milestone: ---
On Fedora 25 and from plasma-workspace 5.8.4 on, ksmserver uses more and more
memory. Eventually (several days), it has consumed so much memory that the
systems grinds to a halt (until it is killed by oomkiller). Long before then,
screen locking stops working (that is, the computer is not locked after waking
from standby, which makes me extremely nervous). Reboot fixes the issue for a
while.
For example, after 17:36 hours of activity, ksmserver uses 2,5Gb of memory.
Screen locking does not work anymore.
ps -eo rss,pid,user,command --sort -rss | awk '{ hr=$1/1024 ; printf("%13.2f Mb
",hr) } { for ( x=4 ; x<=NF ; x++ ) { printf("%s ",$x) } print "" }' | head -n2
0.00 Mb COMMAND
2616.69 Mb /usr/bin/ksmserver

Is there anything I could do to help fix the issue? If it helps, I could try to
compile and bisect ksmserver.
