--- Comment #72 from Brennan Kinney <polarathene-sig...@hotmail.com> --- One thing I have been doing but still haven't configured as a default, is increase the systems file watchers. They kept running out recently when working on a larger project, and GitKraken would also complain about running out of file watchers sometimes. A recent update didn't complain when I would have expected it to, and despite being idle was constantly causing 50% CPU usage(2 cores/threads on 4 cores/threads i5-6500) as well as notably more memory usage, although it was growing from around 1.2GB to 1.6GB then falling back to 1.2GB consistently. If my system versions don't resolve the problem for you, or your distro isn't able to use those easily, perhaps try this(only changes until reboot): sudo sysctl fs.inotify.max_user_watches=262144 The number is 2^18, your distro may be using 2^13(8192) or lower by default. You can check with(use before running above command): cat /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_watches -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
