[Bug 1973403] Re: gnome-shell is using over 13GB of ram after 5 days
You can close this bug now. After 11 days gnome-shell memory usage has been stable. I must have had an application causing the issue. As I leave my PC on for a long time, never shutdown, I do not know what it would have been that caused this. But I am sure it is not gnome-shell. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1973403 Title: gnome-shell is using over 13GB of ram after 5 days To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1973403/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Since the cause of gnome-shell leaks is almost never gnome-shell itself I am unassigning that package. ** Package changed: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) => ubuntu -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1973403 Title: gnome-shell is using over 13GB of ram after 5 days To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1973403/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have looked in ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/ There is no extensions folder. This is a new install of Ubuntu 22.04 with no modifications yet.

Also while the problem is happening please run: ps auxw | grep gnome-shell > psoutput.txt and attach the resulting text file here. ** Tags added: gnome-shell-leak ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1973403 Title: gnome-shell is using over 13GB of ram after 5 days To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1973403/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1973403] Re: gnome-shell is using over 13GB of ram after 5 days
Thanks for the bug report. 1. Please open the Extensions app (from package gnome-shell-extension- prefs) and ensure you only have the three Ubuntu extensions loaded. 2. Please run these commands in a Terminal to remove any locally- installed extensions you might have: cd ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/ rm -rf extensions 3. Log in again and tell us if the problem returns. 4. If the problem does return then it might be related to the flood of 'unable to update icon for multiload' messages in your log. To test that theory please disable 'Ubuntu AppIndicators' in the Extensions app. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1973403 Title: gnome-shell is using over 13GB of ram after 5 days To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1973403/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
