Package: mate-settings-daemon Version: 1.8.2-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, I have been using MATE on openSUSE 13.2 and ran in to an issue where mate-settings-daemon would eat ram until death of computer. I got 8gb ram so noticedat about 6-7gb eaten. Well that led me to Google and these 2 links spell out problem: https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-settings- daemon/issues/44#issuecomment-61430431 http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=198&t=159793 including links to Redhat (with Poettering and Clem from Mint chatting if I remember correctly) and Debain bugtracker - and Mint forum. Mint people think removing systemd is the fix :)Well I then went to use Ubuntu MATE for 1 week. Guess what, zero issues. Ubuntu14.04 LTS does not use a lot of systemd. Probaly why, I suspect Mint forum might be correct but not acceptable fix - and it will probably blow up otherthings. But because Ubuntu being Ubuntu I changed again. Now Debian Jessie with MATE. Worked much better except I now see bug again. Think it might be becauseI used the plugin for Caja allowing to fire files as root. My xsession-errors fill up, 500+MB with (caja:2450): dconf-CRITICAL **: unable to create file'/run/user/1000/dconf/user': Permission denied. dconf will not work properly.So same OLD story. I am mainly reporting this to say it is still there. Has nothing new to add. Is impossible to miss bug when is show itself, when swapping kicks in becauseram is gone you notice, but possible not that many run in to it. Depends on how each compute of course. Is nasty so I hope it is acknowledged and being workedon.
Thanks for reporting this. I need to check on this. There were several upstream commit on various MATE components fixing memory leaks, recently. I will ask the upstream author of those patches what he thinks about pushing them into Debian jessie.
