Title:
memory leak in unity-panel-service

This bug affects me on Ubuntu 16.10, after upgrading from 16.04.
Keeping my computer on simply results in unity-panel-service to use up all
memory.

unity-panel-service is not leaking memory on 15.04+. The memory
footprint tends to grow slowly but that does not mean there is actually
a memory leak, it's just the way the kernel manages the memory. Please
reopen the bug if you think the leak is still there.

I've just rebooted, so I don't have this in front of me any more.
I don't run any non-standard indicators. I have an external (to the laptop)
monitor and I run unity-2d.
Indicators I have (sorry for ignorance here):
* mail envelope (messaging) : ** this has xchat-indicator in it
* battery (conf
Scott, using valgrind to find memory bloat (which might not be memory
leaks) is often misleading and inaccurate. The valgrind tool for
measuring boat is "massif". Please try that (valgrind --tool=massif).
Also, obviously, if you're running any non-standard indicators then please say
so. Or just a
Running since May 3 (18 days now), unity-panel-service is 400M of resident
memory.
The executable running is from 5.10.0-0ubuntu6 (precise release).
So, there is still significant memory leak there.

Attached is a valgrind log for ~ 24 hours using the above version,
showing:
==28208== LEAK SUMMARY:
==28208==definitely lost: 34,549 bytes in 419 blocks
==28208==indirectly lost: 65,745 bytes in 2,510 blocks

I apologize for my rant.
I've got valgrind running on my unity-panel-service now, by doing this:
sudo mv /usr/lib/unity/unity-panel-service
/usr/lib/unity/unity-panel-service.real
sudo ln -sf unity-panel-service.wrap /usr/lib/unity/unity-panel-service
cat <<"EOF" | sudo tee -a /usr/lib/unity
Discussing on IRC, we have some known leaks but most have been fixed,
the issue is likely coming from an indicator but without a valgrind log
it's hard to figure which one...

I disagree with the response here for the following reasons:
* marking it 'invalid' so it will magically go away isn't helpful for anyone
* suggesting that I should log out of my currently running environment, and
run valgrind on my system for the next 2 weeks because you find that
unreasonable
Thank you for your bug report, quite some leaks got fixed since you
reported the issue, is that still happening? Could you get a valgrind
log for it?
