--- Comment #6 from Mathieu Jobin <opensou...@somekool.net> --- I agree with David, this is not a valid measure of process memory usage. not only its irrelevent to consider the total size to swap a process we use constantly but also, I see processes showing up at the top of that list that i know for sure has no impact on my machine whether I bring them up, or close them.... like kate and kmail which shows 4th and 1st respectively. kwin is 2nd and plasmashell 3rd. I can kill plasmashell it will make no performance impact on my system, I can relauch plasmashell it will have again no impact on my system. sorting by rss is much more accurate in my opinion here is my top 15 [mathieu@hz550 ~]$ ps -eo rss,command | sort -nr | awk {'print $2'} | head -n 15 kwin_x11 /opt/google/chrome/chrome /usr/bin/qupzilla /usr/bin/kmail /opt/google/chrome/chrome /opt/google/chrome/chrome /opt/google/chrome/chrome /usr/bin/plasmashell /opt/google/chrome/chrome /usr/lib/jvm/default-runtime/bin/java /opt/google/chrome/chrome /usr/lib/xorg-server/Xorg /opt/google/chrome/chrome /opt/google/chrome/chrome /usr/lib/qt/libexec/QtWebEngineProcess [mathieu@hz550 ~]$ even if kwin shows first, i don't care as i need it 100% if the time and its a single process. 32 chrome process is much more of a problem in my life mathieu@hz550 ~]$ ps -eo rss,command | sort -nr | awk {'print $2'} | grep chrome | wc -l 32 [mathieu@hz550 ~]$ [mathieu@hz550 ~]$ ps -eo rss,vsz,size,pid,args | sort -n | cut -c -89 | tail -n 20 63084 868408 158032 3991 /opt/google/chrome/chrome --type=renderer --enable-features=Linu 65512 1308516 111400 8674 /usr/lib/qt/libexec/QtWebEngineProcess --type=renderer --disabl 67192 893400 184904 27013 /opt/google/chrome/chrome --type=renderer --enable-features=Lin 76056 1314728 110820 8813 /usr/lib/qt/libexec/QtWebEngineProcess --type=renderer --disabl 89776 681432 609356 1070 /usr/bin/mysqld --defaults-file=/home/mathieu/.local/share/akona 100492 1341528 135596 8809 /usr/lib/qt/libexec/QtWebEngineProcess --type=renderer --disab 105336 963104 200820 29069 /opt/google/chrome/chrome --type=renderer --enable-features=Li 112068 1391888 368624 26700 /opt/google/chrome/chrome --type=renderer --enable-features=L 117244 346676 64596 497 /usr/lib/xorg-server/Xorg -nolisten tcp -auth /var/run/sddm/{425 129928 975796 272952 26713 /opt/google/chrome/chrome --type=renderer --enable-features=Li 136536 4640520 620420 3583 /usr/lib/jvm/default-runtime/bin/java -Xms256m -Xmx1g -Djava.a 149360 988648 285212 26820 /opt/google/chrome/chrome --type=renderer --enable-features=Li 153064 9497796 2422820 2637 /usr/bin/plasmashell 161388 1510348 647616 26621 /opt/google/chrome/chrome 163888 1041524 320608 30004 /opt/google/chrome/chrome --type=renderer --enable-features=L 187280 1395876 876436 26695 /opt/google/chrome/chrome --type=gpu-process --channel=26621. 194980 5652248 2535452 8637 /usr/bin/kmail -qwindowtitle KMail 277884 3553852 778660 8756 /usr/bin/qupzilla https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=369566 325052 1841280 998552 4245 /opt/google/chrome/chrome --type=renderer --enable-features=Li 363304 3608772 2480772 788 kwin_x11 [mathieu@hz550 ~]$ -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
