[plasmashell] [Bug 385970] Plasmashell high memory usage when using slideshow for desktop backgrounds
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=385970 --- Comment #1 from dale --- I'm having the same issue when the slideshow is used. Usually I kill plasmashell when I'm not going to be around the computer for a while but once I forgot. It kept increasing until the OOM-killer killed it. I have 16GBs of memory so it got real hungry. Some info on what I have, using OP as a guide on what to provide. Gentoo plasma-5.39.0 plasma-desktop-5.11.2 plasma-workspace dev-qt/qtcore-5.9.2 If a dev needs more info, let me know. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
[plasmashell] [Bug 385970] Plasmashell high memory usage when using slideshow for desktop backgrounds
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=385970 --- Comment #2 from dale --- To add a little more info. Someone posted elsewhere that maybe it was loading the wallpaper images into memory for some reason. To test that, I used a directory that was large enough to see the difference but small enough to also know if that is what it is doing. I used one that is about 1.6GBs. After a few hours, it was well past what would be needed to load the wallpapers in memory plus what plasmashell usually uses by almost 1GB. If it is loading the wallpapers into memory, it is also doing something else with memory as well. I'm not sure what. Also, while on this slideshow topic. Is there a way to tell it not to randomize the images? I have a lot of images that are designed to be shown as a slideshow but not in random order. They are made to be shown in sequence. If I can provide any more info, let me know. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=385970 Richard changed: What|Removed |Added Version|5.10.5 |5.11.2 --- Comment #3 from Richard --- Since submitting this I have upgraded KDE on Kubuntu with the Backports so can confirm like Dale below that this is still an issue. New info: Kubuntu 17.10 w/ KDE Backports PPA KDE Plasma: 5.11.2 KDE Framework: 5.39.0 QT Version: 5.9.1 Kernel: 4.13.0-16 Also, for me memory starts off as normal, ~300mb at boot time, and slowly grows over time. I normally leave my system running since it's a desktop and it grows about 4GB/day minimum. Killing plasmashell or rebooting clears this usage but will continue to grow afterwards. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
