Same issue here. Fresh install of Intrepid (with only updates run in). Running on a dual core CPU, it seems to use 100% of one core, while the other uses about 9-25%, when I restart networking it switches CPU's and the first goes down, while the second goes up to 100%. Also using about 950MB out of my modest 1GB.

[Bug 291074] Re: memory leak in Network Manager Intrepid
Pentium 3.0Ghz hyperthreading 1GB RAM, 1.5GB swap, using wired but have wireless adaptor installed as well. Ubuntu 8.04 was fine. Did an upgrade to 8.10, and had this runaway NetworkManager problem. There were other issues related to a problematic upgrade, so I wiped hdd and installed a clean 8.10, which fixed the other issues but the NetworkManager (v0.7) problem reoccurred. Upon bootup NetworkManager process starts consuming memory, confirmed in System Monitor. Within 15-60 minutes it has consumed 600-800MB slowing the system to a crawl and eventually Ubuntu stops responding. Executing sudo killall NetworkManager before this point clears the consumed memory and returns the system to a stable ~200MB memory. Executing sudo NetworkManager causes the runaway memory problem to begin again. Below is some output of /var/log/syslog when the NetworkManager process is running.

[Bug 291074] Re: memory leak in Network Manager Intrepid
I only see this every few days or so, and it only comes on one particular network. My guess is that Network Manager encounters a glitch in the network of some description, exits from its main routine without freeing some memory, goes into the error handling routine, prints a message to say there was a problem to the syslog, then returns to its main routine, encounters the glitch again, and so on, printing about 100 000 syslog errors until I notice the problem and kill it. I had a quick look at the source code a few weeks ago, without making much progress (because a) I'm not familiar with certain libraries used, and b) I'm not a very good programmer c) I haven't had any time to study this in detail), but I did notice that the error handling routine in Network Manager was the following: static void nm_error_monitoring_device_link_state (NMNetlinkMonitor *monitor, GError *error, gpointer user_data) { /* FIXME: Try to handle the error instead of just printing it. */ nm_warning (error monitoring wired ethernet link state: %s\n, error-message); } Which doesn't look very good. Even asking it to sleep for a few seconds here, giving the network time to recover from whatever its problem was, would probably stop it getting too badly out of control (although it would obviously be best to find and fix the memory leak). As a workaround, I have implemented the following script and set it as a cron job to run every 5 minutes: put the following into /usr/sbin/NetworkManager.sh: #!/bin/sh #script to kill NetworkManager if it gets too resource hungry #check how much percentage memory nm is using, put it into x x=`ps -e -o pmem -o comm | grep NetworkManager | awk '{printf(%d\n,$1)}' ` #echo $x | awk '{printf(%d\n,$1)}' #if nm is using more than 5% of the memory, kill and restart it if(test `echo $x | awk '{printf(%d\n,$1)}'` -ge 5); then echo `date`:NetworkManager.sh: I'm about to kill NetworkManager pmem = $x | logger killall -9 NetworkManager sleep 10 NetworkManager fi ___ Then using sudo crontab -u root -e insert the following into the crontab 02 * * * * /usr/sbin/NetworkManager.sh 07 * * * * /usr/sbin/NetworkManager.sh 12 * * * * /usr/sbin/NetworkManager.sh 17 * * * * /usr/sbin/NetworkManager.sh 22 * * * * /usr/sbin/NetworkManager.sh 27 * * * * /usr/sbin/NetworkManager.sh 32 * * * * /usr/sbin/NetworkManager.sh 37 * * * * /usr/sbin/NetworkManager.sh 42 * * * * /usr/sbin/NetworkManager.sh 47 * * * * /usr/sbin/NetworkManager.sh 52 * * * * /usr/sbin/NetworkManager.sh 57 * * * * /usr/sbin/NetworkManager.sh It's not at all elegant, but it seems to work. -- memory leak in Network Manager Intrepid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/291074 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 291074] Re: memory leak in Network Manager Intrepid
Alright, I've pin pointed the problem, at least in my case. It turned out a long forgotten wireless PCI card WLG-1201 - TI 802.11g Wireless PCI Card (chipset TNETW1130GVF) that was still in my computer was seriously confusing NetworkManager. Removed and resolved the problem. -- memory leak in Network Manager Intrepid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/291074 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
