[Dx-packages] [Bug 987060] Re: massive memory leak in unity-panel-service and hud-service when invoking the hud on Firefox profiles with large amounts of bookmarks LTS 12.04 14.04
Other commenters have indicated this happens in other browsers to and the OP specifically pointed out the leak is in Unity not Firefox as such marking this incomplete for Firefox unless someone can substantiate that this is really a Firefox bug which is unlikely. ** Changed in: firefox (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to hud in Ubuntu.

It's taking anywhere from a few minutes to half an hour, but it sometimes makes the system completely unusable. 1. run Firefox 12.0 in the foreground 2. hit Alt to bring up HUD 3. type any text 4. select one proposal from HUD 5. wait for unity-panel-service and hud-service to fill up the remaining RAM and swap space. This is due to a high number of bookmarks in a user profile (hundreds).

[Dx-packages] [Bug 1166124] Re: Ubuntu minimum system requirements needs to be updated
@Svetlana How is this issue fixed? I still see low-end system requirement specs which would not provide a user friendly experience on Ubuntu. I suggest we ask the Ubuntu Desktop or Community Team to look into this and provide us with more specific system requirements that would give a basic experience.
