Here is what is showing for plasma-desktop. I switched activities a few times and opened and closed a bunch of widgets, and now KSysGuard shows plasma-desktop taking 452,816 MB of memory and it's eating 25% of the CPU for no reason, and it's stuck there. I upgraded the Xorg packages, so we will see if that helps the memory usage. pmap $(pidof plasma-desktop)|tail -n 3 Total: 7285496K 574224K 512179K 470216K 0K 3874008K writable-private, 3089568K readonly-private, 321920K shared, and 562712K referenced On Thu, Apr 17, 2014 at 4:23 PM, Cristian Rodríguez <crrodriguez@opensuse.org> wrote:

On openSUSE 13.1 x64 with KDE 4.11.5 and the "radeon" kernel driver, I have noticed that plasma-desktop increases in memory size the longer my desktop is up, and it crawls up over 200 MB easily when opening widgets. When closing widgets, activities, etc., the memory is not freed.
Ok, how are you defining and measuring "used memory". plasma desktop uses 107 MB of memory here.
Switching activities and creating new activities also does
this. At the same time, Xorg can take over 400 MB of ram in less than a day, depending on what I am doing.
X takes 87MB here..
I have filed numerous bug reports about this on Novell's Bugzilla as well as with KDE, and nobody is doing anything about it. I'm not the only one that has this issue. Is anyone else here experiencing this, and what's being done about it?
We may be able to do something, but for the start, check if your numbers are correct or you are confused.
to get the memory usage of X:
pmap $(pidof Xorg) post what the "total" says in the PSS column, same for plasma-desktop or whatever else.
