Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-panel
I'm running 8.04 x64 , and every morning I find my gnome-panel
(1:2.22.1.3-0ubuntu1) taking up an absurd amount of memory. It seems to be
using more than half of my 4gigs of memory and 2 gigs of swap. I have three
panels running. One with just a taskbar and clock. One with only launcher
buttons, and one with the following components:
menu button
deskbar applet
weather applet
clock
volume control
notification area
post-it notes
logout button
screen lock button
If I 'killall gnome-panel' a ton of my memory is freed up. Also, very
often when I do this, the deskbar-applet fails to load. Usually once it
fails to load, re-killing the panel will fix it.
