Just to keep this alive and to add a new data point, I upgraded to the 3.19.0-21 kernel and after 6 days polkitd has grown to 1.4+G memory usage. I don't think the kernel version has anything to do with the problem. On the plus side, my WIFI connection has stabilized since the upgrade.
Thx, Jon. p.s. I'm putting together a new system so I'll be able to know if this will affect a absolutely clean install in a couple of weeks. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1470235 Title: PolicyKit high memory usage To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/policykit-1/+bug/1470235/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
