[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1494402] [NEW] WebKitWebProcess WebKitGtk+ 2.4.8 uses memory without end when visiting some LinkedIn URL
Public bug reported: Ubuntu 14.10 with GNOME3 PPA. I launch Web, GNOME's default browser and I log in into my LinkedIn profile. Then, from the top bar I place my pointer over the "Connections" menu so it is expanded, once expanded, I click on the "See all" link: https://www.linkedin.com/people/pymk/hub?ref=global-nav=nav_utilities_invites_header Upon doing so, the browser freezes and I notice the HD of my computer starting to work hard. After checking with "top" the WebKitWebProcess is growing its used memory by the Gbs!!! and it doesn't seem to stop. This may not be a problem in WKGTK+ but the graphics driver since, after repeating the process with a GDB attached to the WebKitWebProcess, GDB states that the point in which it exits when manually killing the process is: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/i965_dri.so However, I cannot reproduce with Chromium, FF (of course, the code path is completely different). ** Affects: mesa (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Package changed: nautilus-sendto (Ubuntu) => mesa (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1494402 Title: WebKitWebProcess WebKitGtk+ 2.4.8 uses memory without end when visiting some LinkedIn URL To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mesa/+bug/1494402/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1400730] Re: libxext fills up .xsession-errors log files
I'm suffering the same problem and I've applied the suggested upstream patch in my personal PPA: https://launchpad.net/~tanty/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+packages However, I don't think this is a proper fix for the problem I'm observing. When the problem was happening and tons of error is _xgeWireToEvent: Unknown extension 148, this should never happen messages were spitted, everything was going much slower in the affected application. With the fix, the application now is mute about this problem but it is still clearly slower. Hence, the error is still happening it is just that we are not seeing the error messages any more. Is this error a regression in libXext ? In my case, I'm specially seeing it in a custom compilation of epiphany, the GNOME Browser, from upstream. It seems to be affecting webkitgtk+ ... I've just upgraded from Trusty and I was not suffering this problem before with the same custom compilation of epiphany. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to libxext in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1400730 Title: libxext fills up .xsession-errors log files To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libxext/+bug/1400730/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
