Thanks for your efforts... heaptrack_gui is telling me the largest peak allocation location is either 60MB or 106MB, depending on what tab you look at. So that's not evident of any leaks in the heap.
If your RSS was 1.6GB then that is still evident of a major leak or bloat. The fact that heaptrack can't find that memory tells me it's not in the heap. Most likely mmap'd for something like texture allocation. You'd need to use a tool that can monitor all mmaps at the lowest level, something like HEAP_PROFILE_ONLY_MMAP=1 with https://gperftools.github.io/gperftools/heapprofile.html -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1856516 Title: Excessive memory usage by gnome-shell in 19.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1856516/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
