[opensuse-xorg] xorg or plasma memory leak?
Hi, all! Recently I noticed constantly growing Xorg resident memory usage during a session (OpenSUSE 12.3, xf86-video-intel, KDE4). It starts with 18M and constantly grows up to 350M, at which point it causes long stalls of applications due to large use of swap. It seems that the memory is related to the grow of the plasma-desktop X data memory. Using "prlimit --data=30000000:60000000 --pid <Xorg PID>" has no effect (though "ulimit" shows the limits imposed). What could you advise? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-xorg+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-xorg+owner@opensuse.org

Hi, You could check output of xrestop (xrestop command). It case the leak is in some of the monitored X resources (Pixmaps, GCs, ...), it will show which resource and which application is taking so much.

Hi, I have opensuse 12.2 x86_64 and nvidia (nouveau driver) and since some weeks my Xorg grows till eats all mem (more than 1.5Gb) . xrestop does not shows nothing special but top : -------------------------------------------------- Tasks: 171 total, 4 running, 167 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie %Cpu(s): 13,9 us, 6,6 sy, 0,0 ni, 77,8 id, 1,4 wa, 0,0 hi, 0,3 si, 0,0 st KiB Mem: 4052744 total, 3840944 used, 211800 free, 41568 buffers KiB Swap: 2103292 total, 221348 used, 1881944 free, 497548 cached PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 942 root 20 0 871m 693m 49m R 11,3 17,5 200:20.22 Xorg ------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------- xrestop - Display: localhost:0 Monitoring 55 clients.
