Title:
memory leak in gnome-shell
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Gnome-shell slowly grows in memory over time. The mouse will start to
stutter and keyboard input repeats the same character many times.
After a day or two, I have to reboot or my desktop environment
crashes.
I have disabled all extensions except for the Ubuntu default ones. I'm
willing to help debug if needed.
