so the diff is around 2690 lines, 1771 of those being the gdbusdaemon for win32 use, it means the remaining diff is around 900 lines of actual changes, it's not trivial but far from the 34k you listed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to glib2.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/998521 Title: whoopsie process is leaking memory Status in Whoopsie Daisy: Fix Released Status in “glib2.0” package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Status in “whoopsie-daisy” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “glib2.0” source package in Precise: Fix Committed Status in “whoopsie-daisy” source package in Precise: Confirmed Status in “glib2.0” source package in Quantal: Fix Committed Status in “whoopsie-daisy” source package in Quantal: Confirmed Bug description: Impact: stable update from the upstream serie including a fix for a leak affecting the default Ubuntu bug reporting tool (whoopsie) Development Fix: the fix is in upstream glib git and will be in q with the next update Stable Fix: the fix is a one liner, the new version has some extra changes Test Case: watch the whoopsie memory usage over time, it should be stable Regression Potential: it's glib, the update should be carefully tested I have a 12.04 server running for 7 days and today I noticed some things started to be swapped out. top shows: PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 1975 whoopsie 20 0 2649m 1.4g 484 S 0 18.5 14:05.67 whoopsie with 1.4g residential memory. There were 2 crashed applications, facter with .crash file is 2.8Mb and landscape-sysinfo of 17K so it does not look like it is related. I will keep the process running in case i can provide more information and will monitor the process to see whether it is leaking memory.
