[Bug 1048447] New: libQt5Core5 5.9.1 introduces memory leak and plasmashell crash
http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1048447 Bug ID: 1048447 Summary: libQt5Core5 5.9.1 introduces memory leak and plasmashell crash Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE Workspace (Plasma) Assignee: opensuse-kde-bugs@opensuse.org Reporter: sonichedgehog_hyperblast00@yahoo.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- Since upgrading from libQt5Core5 5.9.0 to 5.9.1, I experience two issues with plasmashell, which seem to be caused by the same core problem. The first is that the desktop causes massive memory usage. In over an hour, my system goes from using 2GB of memory (after booting and opening my applications) to approximately 8GB! However this memory is not attributed to any one process; It seems to be disk cache memory, which is further indicated by the fact that issuing the command "echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches" causes some of it to be freed up (not all). The second issue is that every few hours, plasmashell will crash and restart. I use an image slideshow wallpaper, and before the crash it always becomes black instead of an image... plasmashell then dies immediately after I attempt to click anything on the desktop. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

This is a known issue, please disable the slideshow in the meanwhile.
Thank you for confirming. Will await the fix in that case. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

A heads up: I believe someone added a patch to the upstream bug, which users have tested and said fixes the memory leaks (hopefully the blackness too). Hoping the openSUSE crew is staying tuned to that, so this patch can be added to Tumbleweed as soon as it's available.
No patch available, but for now I reverted the broken upstream commit as it does not look like anything depends on its behaviour. sr#512501. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
