Public bug reported:
Hi,
the Xorg server keeps in its memory mappings a lot of deleted DRM
objects:
# grep /drm /proc/$(pidof Xorg)/maps
7fc03d0bb000-7fc03d8bb000 rw-s 00000000 00:05 29858 /drm
mm object (deleted)
7fc03f340000-7fc03f3c0000 rw-s 00000000 00:05 269000 /drm
mm object (deleted)
7fc0404c0000-7fc0404e0000 rw-s 00000000 00:05 239479 /drm
mm object (deleted)
7fc040558000-7fc040568000 rw-s 00000000 00:05 269836 /drm
mm object (deleted)
[many similar lines]
# grep /drm /proc/$(pidof Xorg)/maps | wc
159 1431 15582
This is a waste of memory and according to the analysis below (made with
ksysguard) it amounts to 22MB.
Process 2082 - Xorg
Summary
The process Xorg (with pid 2082) is using approximately 73.3 MB of memory.
It is using 62.3 MB privately, and a further 32.6 MB that is, or could be,
shared with other programs.
Dividing up the shared memory between all the processes sharing that memory we
get a reduced shared memory usage of 11.1 MB. Adding that to the private usage,
we get the above mentioned total memory footprint of 73.3 MB.
3.1 MB is swapped out to disk, probably due to a low amount of available memory
left.
Library Usage
The memory usage of a process is found by adding up the memory usage of
each of its libraries, plus the process's own heap, stack and any other
mappings.
