Public bug reported: Binary package hint: telepathy-sofiasip
In 9.10 and in Lucid Alpha 3, telepathy-sofia sometimes, at some random time it seems, begins to swallow huge amounts of memory. It swamps the physical memory as well as swap until the machine is completely borked and unresponsive and processes gets killed (or die for other OOM-related reasons). $ cat /proc/`pidof telepathy-sofiasip`/maps ... 08c77000-7667b000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [heap] a2352000-b2353000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 b7898000-b789e000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 b78b9000-b78bb000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 b78bb000-b78c2000 r--s 00000000 08:05 4188554 /usr/lib/gconv/gconv-modules.cache b78c2000-b78c4000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 bff36000-bff4b000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack] Or smaps on the messed up ranges: 08c77000-7667b000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [heap] Size: 1796112 kB Rss: 899032 kB Pss: 899032 kB Shared_Clean: 0 kB Shared_Dirty: 0 kB Private_Clean: 76 kB Private_Dirty: 898956 kB Referenced: 691472 kB Swap: 896976 kB KernelPageSize: 4 kB MMUPageSize: 4 kB a2352000-b2353000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 Size: 262148 kB Rss: 262148 kB Pss: 262148 kB Shared_Clean: 0 kB Shared_Dirty: 0 kB Private_Clean: 0 kB Private_Dirty: 262148 kB Referenced: 262000 kB Swap: 0 kB KernelPageSize: 4 kB MMUPageSize: 4 kB ** Affects: telepathy-sofiasip (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: leak memory sofia sofiasip telepathy -- telepathy-sofia has serious memory leak https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/530536 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
