Hi,
thanks for the more detailed analysis. It makes me wonder if the problem is really in the kernel. Maybe one of the programs keep leaking graphics buffers.
The graphics buffer is like a regular memory buffer. As long as a program has it allocated, the kernel will not release the memory pages.

With electron running the shared memory consumption is going up at roughly 200 - 300 MB per hour.
Stopping electron again has no effect, i.e. the shared memory consumption is still rising at the same rate.
Could it be that the electron process keeps running in the background?
No, unless it has a sub-process with a different name in it. I've checked with "ps -ef | grep electron". -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
