if you want to use e20 ... (which is in beta) you will WANT efl from git (efl
1.16 beta etc.). efl 1.16 is due out monday.

i cannot see your memory issue. my e memory level stays steady even running
over night or a whole day. so either you have a module or feature enabled that
causes this (that i don't) or it may be in efl itself (in which case my
from-git efl is happily fixing the issue).

[e-users] memory usage

2015-11-06 Thread Conrad Knight 
Hi,

After resolving my build problems earlier (-O3 in the CFLAGS caused
edje_cc to segfault while elementary was building, -O2 worked), i'm
now noticing extreme memory usage with Enlightenment. Not at first, it
gradually goes up over time.

I first noticed that after Enlightenment runs for a while, the machine
gets a bit "laggy" for want of a better description. Windows take a
while to respond when switching focus, clicks take longer to register,
stuttering while scrolling in Chrome... Wondering what was up, I ran
"top" just to see if some process had run away, and found this:

  PID USER  PR  NIVIRTRESSHR S  %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
 8867 root  20   0  316872 128708  29988 S  26.1  1.6   1765:45 Xorg

 3307 conrad23   3 1225216 457652  69544 S   3.6  5.7  15:17.08 chrome
 ...

(That looked better with a mono-spaced font...)

The memory usage goes right back down again after selecting "Restart"
from the Enlightenment menu. This was much worse at first, after I
used the "-O2 -ffast-math -m=native" CFLAGS, going up to 4.5g under
RES overnight, the VIRT number had to be abbreviated with a 'g' as
well, and the %MEM value was over 50%!

While tracking down the previous build problem I tried with just "-O3"
and then just "-O2" to verify that was the cause of the previous
segfault, and that last build is the one that's currently running.
This seems to be using up memory at a slower rate.

I gave up trying to get the libraries freshly from git to build...
there were too many conflicting libwhatever-1.so -> 1.15.so / 1.16.so
conflicts, and some enlightenment modules were looking for
non-existent files in E20 vs E19 directories. Should i just wait for
the next release, or will i simply run into the same problems? Should
I ditch this new gcc 5.2.1? :) Is there any other way to track down /
solve this excessive memory usage?

Thanks,
-Conrad.

 e doesnt have a memory monitor. if you mean whats in emodules (that
 is not in e! thats e modules a separate cvs tree entirely) then its
 not counting the same way. memory is a complex thing. but its
 probably not ignoring disk and buffer cache.

There's an option for that in the module configuration. Tell it to
ignore buffers and cache and it should be the same.
