Package: tigervnc-standalone-server
Version: 1.9.0+dfsg-3+deb10u3
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where
appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
After starting a vncserver process e.g.: vncserver :4 -geometry 1440x900
-depth 24 -localhost no
the package mate-panel starts grabbing memory.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
If the vncserver process is killed e.g.: vncserver -kill :4
a lot of memory is freed.
* What was the outcome of this action?
A running vncserver leads to mate-panel starting grabbing memory.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
Normal usgae of tigervnc without package mate-panel starting to grab memory
