Use the script in #16, it's an ugly solution, but it works.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1470235] Re: PolicyKit high memory usage

2015-08-10 Thread Jon Dallara
Just to keep this alive and to add a new data point, I upgraded to the
3.19.0-21 kernel and after 6 days polkitd has grown to 1.4+G memory
usage.  I don't think the kernel version has anything to do with the
problem.  On the plus side, my WIFI connection has stabilized since the
upgrade.

Thx, Jon.

p.s.  I'm putting together a new system so I'll be able to know if this
will affect a absolutely clean install in a couple of weeks.

2015-09-10 Thread Jon Dallara
New system, clean install.  Linux Mint 17.2, 3.19-0-21 kernel.  Same
problem, over 1G in less than 2 days.  My older system will lock up
thrashing its swap space if I don't re-boot it every 3 days or so
(memory  used 100% and swap 95-100% used).

Thanks,  Jon.

2015-07-12 Thread Jon Dallara
New screenshots from my system after 5+ days.  polkitd is at 1.2G +.  I
have daily screenshots also if they are needed.  I have Firefox and
Thunderbird running always.  I do find my WIFI connection becomes less
stable as polkitd gets larger.

Title:
  PolicyKit high memory usage

Status in policykit-1 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Periodically I install updates on my computer and reboot without
  logging in. When I come back to my computer and log in, polkitd is
  using a large chunk of memory. At the moment it's using > 2.3 GiB of
  memory on a machine with 8 GB RAM:

  $ ps aux | grep polkit
  root  1229  0.4 29.8 2652532 2420916 ? Sl   Jun19  67:38 
/usr/lib/policykit-1/polkitd --no-debug

  Killing the process frees the memory until I reboot again.

  
  I'm currently using the latest version of policykit-1:

  $ apt-file search /usr/lib/policykit-1/polkitd
  policykit-1: /usr/lib/policykit-1/polkitd

  $ apt-cache policy policykit-1
  policykit-1:
Installed: 0.105-4ubuntu2.14.04.1
