Summary: Plasmashell memory usage increase steadly over time.
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.27.4
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org

output of: 'while /bin/true ; do date >> tmp/plasmashell_mem.log; ps -e -o
comm,%cpu,cputime,etime,rss,%mem | grep -E "plasmashell|COMMAND" | tee -a
tmp/plasmashell_mem.log; sleep 30m; done'
SUMMARY
Plamashell starts using about 400kbytes of memory and after 5:30h it is using
more than 8G !
Must be a memory leak somewhere.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
I collected the memory used by plasmasheel with a simple script. The data is
attached.
Note that, between 12:00h and 13:30h it was my lunch time, the computer was
idle, even so, the memory usage increased from 3665792 to 5375696 bytes.
After 5:30h since the KDE was started it was using 8142588 bytes.
OBSERVED RESULT
Memory usage increase over time.
EXPECTED RESULT
A more discrete usage of memory.
