I have the same problem, has it in 9 and now with a just fresh download of 10, installed on a pretty generic box. It happens with my logitech USB headset. Under 9 it seems to happen when I used a media player...it also keeps my machine from powering down without a hardware reset. Under 10 I had

I've had the java 8 memory leak with lubuntu 16.04. As for using excessive memory from the start, like over a gigabyte with nothing else running, I've seen it in Ubuntu (Unity, Gnome, KDE) and Linux Mint 18 (Cinnamon and KDE), which is based on Ubuntu 16.04. I have not observed this excessive mem

Davias, even though this bug report was originally about the other memory problem of using excessive memory as soon as it turns on, don't see the harm in helping with this java memory problem too since it doesn't look like Canonical is going to fix either one for 16.04 since it has existed so long

I didn't notice a difference with 16.04.01 either. I've switched most of my computers to Linux Mint 18 Mate, which doesn't have this issue even though it is based on 16.04. That OS uses about 400 MB with nothing running, but some proprietary NVIDIA drivers boost it up to about 800 MB. LM 18 Cinn

Here are some screenshots with Ubuntu 16.04 gnome on two different computers. Gnome seems to have improved a little on memory usage in 16.04 since the last time I reported, but I don't know how. This screenshot is from my intel computer. ** Attachment added: "Screenshot from 2016-05-09 07-31-15.

@ Sebastien Bacher I'm still having the excessive use of RAM, even though there is no single process that is responsible. I don't know if the excessive RAM is from the number of running processes or if there is something else using up the RAM. In this screenshot, I don't have any other applicati

This affects me also. Ubuntu Gnome 16.04 is using 2.3 GB of RAM, or 30% of my total RAM. Biggest memory hogs in the processes list according to system monitor are gnome-shell, dropbox, and gnome-software, all over 240 MiB of RAM each. Evolution and chrome are also using a bit (20-90 MiB for eac
