Yup. This is with all plugins and crossfading backend disabled, too. It *looks like* its caching the song in memory, and never releasing it - memory usage goes up every time there is a song change, be it natural or prompted (ff/rewind buttons).
This is completely unusuable; you can *easily* accumulate hundreds, if not thousands, of RAM by simply pushing FF a bunch of times. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to rhythmbox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/976534 Title: Rhythmbox cummulates memory in precise - probably memory leak Status in “rhythmbox” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Rhythmbox memory usage is constantly increasing during long playing - hours.
