I am running jaunty with nvidia graphics and am also seeing excessive (realising that top doesn't report shared memory properly) memory usage. This machine has been up for a number of days and here is the output of top
PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 24707 local 20 0 913m 290m 15m S 8 7.4 1241:22 kwin 11822 local 20 0 935m 140m 53m S 4 3.6 0:54.55 plasma-desktop 24401 root 20 0 950m 432m 3652 S 2 11.0 368:24.92 Xorg X using 432m and kwin 289m seems excessive to me. If I then log out, I can see that X still continues to take up all the memory, but after /etc/init.d/kdm restart and logging back in this is the picture: PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 19151 local 20 0 557m 80m 36m S 1 2.0 0:20.91 kwin 18778 root 20 0 573m 63m 12m S 0 1.6 0:20.25 Xorg 19158 local 20 0 705m 54m 24m S 2 1.4 0:07.12 plasma-desktop A whole different situation. Everything else was the same in both scenarios with the exception of uptime. There were no applications running. -- Kubuntu Jaunty KDE 4.2 very high memory usage https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/343714 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ 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
