Thanks for the bug report. Yes this did sound a lot like bug 1876641 when you mentioned it yesterday and I even installed 20.04 and verified that "show-trash false" fixed it for me.
I did however find that Ubuntu 22.04 has a lesser form of the issue where gnome-shell/ubuntu-dock will suddenly spike in memory usage by many megabytes when deleting files from Nautilus, and then mostly free the memory again 10 seconds later. I was planning on investigating that more. For the moment I will assume this issue is still just the ubuntu-dock extension. ** Tags added: gnome-shell-leak ** Summary changed: - gnome-shell occupies a lot of ram and blocks system + gnome-shell occupies a lot of RAM and blocks system when deleting files in Nautilus ** Package changed: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) => gnome-shell-extension- ubuntu-dock (Ubuntu) -- 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/1962565 Title: gnome-shell occupies a lot of RAM and blocks system when deleting files in Nautilus To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock/+bug/1962565/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
