[Bug 763370] Re: xorg memory leak
Im using AMD graphic card and i also get Xorg memory leak. Im using KWIN and KDE if that matters. ** Attachment added: Xorg memory leak.png https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/763370/+attachment/3431185/+files/Xorg%20memory%20leak.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/763370 Title: xorg memory leak To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/763370/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 763370] Re: xorg memory leak
I can confirm that too. I'm using natty on ThinkPad T42 with 1GiB mem and Radeon 7500. I run modified Ubuntu classic session with compiz. After startup ubuntu uses 150MiB mem, but after 1h it starts swapping because all RAM is used. Also closing and opening windows jumps memory usage up, and also closing application does not reduce memory usage. xorg uses only 40MiB memory, and there is not any visible apps which have over 50MiB RAM usage. About after 2h computer is unusable. 150 processes and 900MiB on 11.04 when my server runs still 9.10 and over 300 process is running 24/7, only using 400MiB. This memory bug makes 11.04 unusably. Gnome terminal, gnome-panel, nautilus,pulseaudio and indicator-applet are also using big amount of virtual memory, but they sticks in under 10MiB RAM. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/763370 Title: xorg memory leak To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/763370/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 763370] Re: xorg memory leak
Original reporter indicates issue was a client app and is now resolved; closing as fixed. To other commenters on this bug, X memory use is primarily a function of what client apps request; if a client app has a bug and mismanages its X memory, it shows up as increased xserver memory load. But the bug is still in the client app. It's a similar situation with high CPU usage... see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/HighCPU for some extra notes. Sometimes you can determine what clients are consuming excess memory using the xrestop command, depending on the type of X memory the client is consuming. Anyway, 90% of the time when X has high cpu or memory, you should assume a *client* problem, not a leak in xorg itself. ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/763370 Title: xorg memory leak To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/763370/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

No, this isn't an application (Chrome or FireFox) memory leak, it is the Xorg process which is currently stuck at 1.49GB of memory used.

I investigate my problem and find bad app. It was Avant Window Navigator. I removed AWN and installed Cairo-Doc. Now Xorg works fine. Very fine.
