[Bug 648618] Re: evolution memory leak
I confirm that this bug i definitely not fixed as of natty's evolution- data-server (2.32.2-0ubuntu2). I still observe the same problem with e -calendar-factory that I've seen since (at least) maverick's release... As many have reported, the process e-calendar-factory leaks memory without bound, even with a quite simple calendar configuration (e.g. just a couple of lightly used google calendars). Since e-calendar- factory runs continuously -- even if Evolution is closed -- eventually it eats all of system memory and kills the whole system. The only work- around is to manually kill the e-calendar-factory process. Today, I determined that I can easily demonstrate the problem. These steps make my e-calendar-factory grow by many megabytes (given my configuration (just a couple of google calendars): 1. run 'top' and locate the e-calendar-factory process (press 'O' then 'n' to sort top's display by memory by amount of memory used) 2. observe the VIRT and RES (memory usage) columns associated with e-calendar-factory 3. now click the date/time indicator in the unity or gnome-shell panel to bring up the popup calendar/agenda 4. now click the desktop to make the popup calendar/agenda go away 5. observe the memory usage of e-calendar-factory in 'top' -- in my case it jumps by 1 to 2 MB 6. repeat from step 3 ... observe that every time you bring up the calendar popup and then close it, e-calendar-factory jumps by 1 to 2 MB. (This might not be the only thing that makes e-calendar-factory leak, but it does always cause such a leak for me. Others experiencing the problem, please advise: Can you also force this easily observable leak using the sequence above? I will continue to investigate the problem. ** Changed in: evolution (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium = High ** Changed in: evolution (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Released = Confirmed ** Changed in: evolution (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = Kamal Mostafa (kamalmostafa) ** Summary changed: - evolution memory leak + evolution (e-calendar-factory) memory leak -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evolution in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/648618 Title: evolution (e-calendar-factory) memory leak -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Saw this today at work, running latest natty. I configured my work calendar (through caldav) then configured my google calendars. went to a meeting and came back to discover e-calendar-factory consuming 2.5G RSS and climbing.

I have the same problem. It eats all my memory within few minutes. Every time I swicth my computer on, I have to kill the process.
