Kay-Ro, that sounds like bug 1876641 so try: gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.dash-to-dock show-trash false and then log in again. If that doesn't solve your issue then please open a new bug by running: ubuntu-bug gnome-shell instead of commenting here. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1962357 Title: gnome-shell takes a lot of ram To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1962357/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1962357] Re: gnome-shell takes a lot of ram
Hi again, a quick update: the issue occurs for me when I try to delete several files at once. In this instance I deleted about 500 files totaling 700mb but in another instance I only deleted about 200 files totaling just 75mb. The attached screenshot shows the ram usage as soon as the system was responsive again (which took about 3-5 minutes). ** Attachment added: "Screenshot from 2022-02-28 16-57-00.jpg" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1962357/+attachment/5564193/+files/Screenshot%20from%202022-02-28%2016-57-00.jpg -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1962357 Title: gnome-shell takes a lot of ram To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1962357/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1962357] Re: gnome-shell takes a lot of ram
Hi, I've got a problem with extensive ram usage of the gnome-shell processes as well. It even causes my system to freeze up sometimes (when the ram is too low) and caused my system to crash a few times today already. I noticed it occurring in the last week or so. It might be related to Ubuntu version 20.04.4? On my system the ram is filled up by 10+ gnome-shell processes and they use a combined 11+Gb of 16Gb ram. On a similar system with ubuntu 20.04.3 this does not seem to occur. My system has 12 cores and 16gb ram. Disabling gnome-shell extensions did not resolve the ram usage. The issue sometimes occurs on startup and sometimes not. A restart via "alt+f2" "r" cleared the ram for me in one instance when I noticed the ram shortage but it did not prevent the issue from re-occurring.

Thanks for the bug report.
