The issue with pulseaudio seems to become clear if you look at its memory maps. It keeps pulling the same files into memory over and over and over again.
... /usr/lib/pulse-0.9.19/modules/module-udev-detect.so I wonder if what udev is doing is auto-remounting the sound card forcing pulseaudio to reload the same files into memory again and again. I'm not expert, but I am pretty sure the clues are around there. -- using module-udev-detect leaks memory https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/424655 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
