Still confirm, after many hours of observation without logout/reboot,
that nautilus use normal low memory. So on my system, the leak was due
to bad encoded name dirs and/or config files related to accented
letters translated to garbage and producing a bunch of gtk errors.

Thanks for your work matt, I'm out of ideas on how to get useful
informations on that issue though, it doesn't happen on any of the boxes
I use and doesn't seem to impact most users so it's not easy to debug
dino99: unity-greeter is a gtk software running on the login screen
with another user,
- looking at lightdm, it need EITHER lightdm-gtk-greeter (was
installed) OR unity-geeter. Thats wrong, unity-greeter needs to be
installed to get lightdm login screen, then X start, otherwise i have to
log via tty.
you need to edit your lightdm.conf to tell it to load the gtk greeter if
that's
For what it's worth, I had the same problem in Nautilus 3.2.1, using my
home folder as the desktop with a modified user-dirs.dirs . The issue is
present on both my computers (one with Oneiric, the other running Mint
12, but it's the same package AFAIK) and it happens with the user-
dirs.dirs
More comment about post #28 above:
- unity 2d 3d was completly purged, and their dependencies related packages
too.
- but while booting i always got stuck to checking battery state
- looking at lightdm, it need EITHER lightdm-gtk-greeter (was installed) OR
unity-geeter. Thats wrong,
What i get on Precise i386:
- on cold boot, nautilus use around 10 Mib
- then xsession-errors is recording continously gtk-critical errors, mainly due
to both Unity, so i've purged them to slow down this madness.
Purging/reinstalling several times or reconfiguring dont help on that side.

No, it does not happen; I found two places where this setting was set:
1. In gconf : apps / nautilus / preferences / desktop_is_home_dir
(this setting appears to have no effect, but was a carry-over from an old
version of Ubuntu. -- is nautilus gtk3 or gtk2 at this point?)
2. in
Oneiric is using gsettings for nautilus not gconf, so the equivalent
setting would be gsettings get org.gnome.nautilus.preferences desktop-
is-home-dir (or set true,false on the same key)
what did you change in your .config?

Ok, I did some tests...
1. When nautilus does NOT draw the desktop, memory use stays put at
around 20M and does not grow. This is without moving the extension
directory, so Dropbox and Kupfer could still be active.
2. If I move aside that extensions directory and restart nautilus, if it

the log doesn't have obvious issues, did you let it running for a while?

Sigh.
I let it run for about 15 minutes. I tried to use it, but like I said,
it takes about 1m just to open a window. So I didn't use it much.
It's not possible to monitor the resource usage of nautilus when it's
running inside of valgrind, because it's not in the System Monitor
anymore... a

Quiting those is not enough, the isuee could be in their .so, what you
could do is either uninstall the packages or simply rename the
/usr/lib/nautilus directory on disk and restart nautilus, if the issue
doesn't happen then you will know it comes from one of those .so
installed in the nautilus
ok, so trying on an oneiric system there nautilus starts around 16mb and
is still using that after 15 minutes, so it's clearly not all systems
something else you can try is to change nautilus to not display the background:

Thanks Sebastien.
I'll try moving the extension dir out of the way and running nautilus as
you suggest.

Sebastien, it's hard to tell; I have nautilus painting the desktop, so
it's always in use. I don't have a solid opinion about this, but yes,
it *seems* to happen ALWAYS, but worse when there is a lot of nautilus

I have looked in the memory map feature of Gnome-System-Monitor, and
