How can it be?
Hi,
years ago I had that problem on xfce4 and it was somehow linked to the theme I used. I don't remember which theme was the trouble maker but changing all the theme related settings might help you here.
I didn't change the theme... but the machine was upgraded to 15.2, and often the theme changes.
Thanks, I'll check the theme later.
I changed the theme, but xfce4-panel keeps wasting memory. top - 13:32:05 up 22 days, 13:45, 3 users, load average: 7.99, 7.26, 7.42 Tasks: 413 total, 2 running, 411 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie %Cpu(s): 3.3 us, 2.0 sy, 0.0 ni, 37.6 id, 56.9 wa, 0.0 hi, 0.2 si, 0.0 st MiB Mem : 7807.965 total, 488.645 free, 4484.973 used, 2834.348 buff/cache MiB Swap: 9224.996 total, 7805.246 free, 1419.750 used. 2776.719 avail Mem PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR SWAP S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 3804 cer 20 0 2653836 1.278g 7884 767420 S 0.000 16.77 2:09.32 xfce4-panel 24940 cer 20 0 3907428 885048 28412 26636 S 0.000 11.07 69:03.62 WebExtensions 25110 cer 20 0 3303232 366248 155708 9884 R 2.961 4.581 528:45.45 Web Content 16664 cer 20 0 3006560 328404 39128 64288 S 0.987 4.107 2942:40 kodi-x11 25466 cer 20 0 3231700 326160 72572 3456 S 0.000 4.079 200:55.81 Web Content 24793 cer 20 0 3723248 306620 126600 8736 S 0.658 3.835 363:58.81 firefox 18792 root 20 0 246432 204624 676 316 D 0.000 2.559 14:50.95 rsyncd 18793 root 20 0 346756 151124 808 316 S 0.000 1.890 25:47.20 rsyncd 25017 cer 20 0 2757736 130036 37484 4360 S 0.000 1.626 1:53.85 Privileged Cont 24894 cer 20 0 3033048 94176 20856 17048 S 0.000 1.178 13:42.17 Web Content ... xfce4-panel is the heaviest memory user in the machine.
