            Bug ID: 361074
           Summary: Memory leak with normal CPU usage, every hour or so
           Product: plasmashell
           Version: master
          Platform: Neon Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: crash
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Desktop Containment
          Assignee: se...@kde.org
          Reporter: justus5abbo...@gmail.com

Every long period of usage, usually a half hour to an hour, a memory leak by
the plasmashell process occurs.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use the plasma environment for an extended period of time

Actual Results:  
The plasmashell process takes up all available memory, dragging the computer to
a near halt. Eventually the process is killed and when restarted everything
returns to normal.

I was able to get a screenshot of top before the computer became unusable
(apologies for the small font because I need to keep it running always-on-top
in order to catch it fast enough):

Expected Results:  
The plasmashell process would not use an exorbitant amount of memory.

KInfoCenter reports a quad core Intel N3540 at 2.16 GHz with 3.7 GiB of RAM

I apologize that I don't have a lot any debugging data to share because I don't
know what exactly to do for that. I will be happy to try giving any debug data
that's instructed to me to collect.
