Qubes Manager leaks memory, which is a known issue: https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/860 The current workaround is to restart it occasionally. Now, if you cannot restart Qubes Manager, then that workaround obviously will not work for you. However, in order to create an issue for Qubes Manager not restarting, we need more information. Does it happen all the time for you, or just sometimes? What are the steps (if any) to reproduce? - -- Andrew David Wong (Axon) Community Manager, Qubes OS https://www.qubes-os.org -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIcBAEBCgAGBQJXdKUiAAoJENtN07w5UDAwDhUQAMoLxmjALhhe7iZq1BW2yoIZ ID0U0M3w/4mPdCvFjAKucwt/ieYGwXdwUpvxn+pUhhjUJl1RcTOBkD3pZsM3GIdl F0In4iyRwDTcXAisl8U6TeVHwYNQmQUaGfzoxHYkHGYb3gC3ewdpepMp7kMwRDx9 nbH/JAf5bl1fuJz3jAriOvj3GJHrDAP+TSzc86L8Shb/G72dHkY95PGToVCsal/L bRxVNkdLYgZRQ7da25HxISOaNqQwk/e4vDc9j/9fELmEnb9raRVQh2D5Vfy0rPgK GcxRZQc5kWkA2kxMk4tG/+FMeUfMnyVk/4s4tjIk9sJCQ7Z4R99B559Kols0wXSv evWsoaITjyuTICosMaz18kOLmSPZPImz2tTEssmOabxkVuX2jY8YuJYhzK5aZP0D WpR8zXbqy6gfaIGF3DD/J/cez/UKdpLfrqGxh/k1sG3GbCx2YHYmtZ7AvKxo++Ej A/eIUm6UHHVMOAc3K0xY7750AMRXtNeDoQZvkqDnoiogaEtsRT3RWLxr2CXZ8Pq2 BjjBichDxi4/40l4I9Ra43teJHfbPq6WseVjDaFaazBAU6ucZQbItKaIHhrsed7W rsj/C0sd3Hr7BrPoi3MVdSiDBBuBSAh8CkRGNEbFIEZ+g+X5MGeEg6PJcSHH7+Nb Ze920SS8Ne1kAUzaVIRx =tBT/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
