FWIW, I tested this on Utopic 160, and have memory usage graphs for the result.
Memory use went up while scrolling around scopes, and it went up each time I went to a scope I hadn't used yet or hit the "see more" button. After that though, it stayed relatively consistent. Memory use also went up when the screen turned itself off, then went back down after unlocking the screen. It's near the right side of the graph. In any case, it doesn't seem like a big issue right now at least for relatively short amounts of time like 15 minutes. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to qtxmlpatterns-opensource- src in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1201116 Title: [dash] constant increase in memory consumption when navigating through lenses Status in The Unity 8 shell: Incomplete Status in “qtxmlpatterns-opensource-src” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Sorry for the poor steps to reproduce: 1. boot the phone 2. unlock the phone 3. go to apps lens, swipe up and down dozens of times 4. maybe go to the video lens and do the same 5. swipe many times between lenses 6. go to the video lens and open and close various previews dozens of times 7. stop moving entirely Current result: CPU usage is easily 15-30% Memory usage seen as high as 400MB Expected result: CPU usage should be 0% Memory usage should be the same as when the phone was just booted and unlocked, around 90-100MB To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity8/+bug/1201116/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
