[opensuse] suse 10.2 main-menu process uses up too much amount of memory?
have you ever experienced this problem? On my desktop workstation a user 'yuliansu' always have problem with her "Computer" menu (the main menu in Gnome) => click it have no response, and sometimes cause gnome-panel to halt (the gnome-panel no respond). top shows this user's process 'main-menu' have used up around 40% memory. I am not sure if this means 40% of total amount of virtual memory (4GB x 40% = 1GB) or physical memory (2GB x 40% = 512MB) but anyway this figure looks wrong. Even for a normal user (zhangwei) his main-menu took 7% amount of memory, either (4GB x 7% =) 280MB or half of it looks like too much for such a small application. Do you have similar problem on SuSE 10.2? This is my top(1) output (sort by memory usage) top - 12:17:10 up 17 days, 17:04, 6 users, load average: 0.19, 0.32, 0.39 Tasks: 305 total, 1 running, 298 sleeping, 0 stopped, 6 zombie Cpu(s): 12.0%us, 1.0%sy, 0.0%ni, 86.2%id, 0.8%wa, 0.0%hi, 0.0%si, 0.0%st Mem: 2068136k total, 2010692k used, 57444k free, 22828k buffers Swap: 2104472k total, 1128164k used, 976308k free, 265084k cached PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 27380 yuliansu 25 10 971m 804m 18m S 0 39.8 353:40.81 main-menu 16645 zhangwei 15 0 253m 149m 18m S 0 7.4 6:53.74 main-menu 27659 yuliansu 15 0 310m 87m 25m S 5 4.3 11:51.32 firefox-bin 27482 zhangwei 15 0 306m 82m 26m S 0 4.1 0:13.14 evolution-2.8 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
