Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed- lunar to verification-done-lunar. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification- failed-lunar. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping! N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days. ** Changed in: transmission (Ubuntu Lunar) Status: New => Fix Committed ** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-lunar ** Changed in: transmission (Ubuntu Jammy) Status: New => Fix Committed ** Tags added: verification-needed-jammy -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to transmission in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1973084 Title: transmission-daemon high RAM usage Status in transmission package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in transmission source package in Jammy: Fix Committed Status in transmission source package in Lunar: Fix Committed Status in transmission package in Debian: New Bug description: [ Impact ] There is a memory leak in transmission-daemon that was introduced by a faulty openssl3 patch.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1973084] Re: transmission-daemon high RAM usage
Marius, Andrey thanks for your contribution! I uploaded jammy and lunar packages to this ppa[1], with amd64 and arm64 builds, with the gentoo patch replacing the one we had in the package. Marius, I changed the d/changelog text a bit, I hope you don't mind, but please let me know if you have concerns. I want to make sure to give credit to everybody involved, and keep your name in the changelog entry so this upload goes to you when it's sponsored. The PPAs are a bit slow, since we just opened the next ubuntu release (noble) for development, so give them some time. Here are the branches from which I built these packages: - jammy: https://code.launchpad.net/~ahasenack/ubuntu/+source/transmission/+git/transmission/+ref/jammy-transmission-memleak-1973084 - lunar: https://code.launchpad.net/~ahasenack/ubuntu/+source/transmission/+git/transmission/+ref/lunar-transmission-memleak-1973084 Mantic and later are at version 4.0.2, and focal and earlier are at 2.94, so I believe they are not affected. The problematic openssl3 patch is in neither. If these work for you guys, then we can start preparing for an SRU, which would definitely be worth it. 1. https://launchpad.net/~ahasenack/+archive/ubuntu/transmission- memleak-1973084/ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to transmission in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1973084 Title: transmission-daemon high RAM usage Status in transmission package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in transmission source package in Jammy: New Status in transmission source package in Lunar: New Status in transmission package in Debian: New Bug description: Transmission uses a lot of RAM in ubuntu 22.04 server (arm64) runnign on a Raspberry Pi 4.

It's possible to sideload the debian package and its dependencies. I did it before reporting this bug and it has been working flawlessly. Not the perfect solution but the solution that is avaliable.

I'm not comfortable with make install. It seems to be caused by openssl3 patch. I reverted it and used gentoo openssl3 patch, transmission is under 122Mb now instead of 10s of gigabytes. https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/tree/net-p2p/transmission/files/transmission-3.00-openssl-3.patch You can try this ppa for amd64, but can't help with arm package: https://launchpad.net/~elhana/+archive/ubuntu/ppa-elhana -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to transmission in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1973084 Title: transmission-daemon high RAM usage Status in transmission package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Transmission uses a lot of RAM in ubuntu 22.04 server (arm64) runnign on a Raspberry Pi 4.

There are many tickets about this memory leak: https://github.com/transmission/transmission/issues/3055 https://github.com/transmission/transmission/issues/3494 https://github.com/transmission/transmission/issues/3536 The issue has been already fixed, but we have to wait for the next release, or we can install the nightly builds as recommended by ckerr. 1) install prerequirements: sudo apt-get update sudo apt install build-essential cmake libcurl4-openssl-dev libssl-dev curl 2) download latest tarball from https://build.transmissionbt.com/job/trunk-linux/ 3) build tar xf transmission-4.0.0-beta.1.dev+rd381939267.tar.xz cd transmission-4.0.0-beta.1.dev+rd381939267 mkdir build cd build cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo .. make sudo make install The "make" step took an hour on my ten yrs old laptop.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1973084] Re: transmission-daemon high RAM usage
Confirmed happening in x86_64 build (and has been for at least six months, under both 22.04 and 22.10...though it was fine at some point in the past as I used it successfully for many years with no issue. Please, please, please fix (even if the solution is giving us some mechanism to upgrade to the 4.0 beta via PPA or something (as the commits mention several fixes to memory leaks)...this has been driving me nuts! No specific torrent, reboot or restart fixes issue (temporarily). Transmission 3.00 (bb6b5a062e). 51 files seeding (currently), though it doesn't seem sensitive to the number. 16MB disk cache. Max 240 peers. Tried disabling PEX, DHT and LPD to see if that would help as I don't particularly need them anyway (but it doesn't help). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to transmission in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1973084 Title: transmission-daemon high RAM usage Status in transmission package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Transmission uses a lot of RAM in ubuntu 22.04 server (arm64) runnign on a Raspberry Pi 4.

It's not triggered by any special torrent file. Right now I am seeding Ubuntu 22.04's files. Here is the log you asked me.

Thank you for your bug report. Could you re-install the Ubuntu version, trigger the issue and then attach the 'journalctl -b 0' log from the session to the report?
