** Description changed: When gnome-system-monitor started it uses about 52-53Mb of memory. While it is running for a long period of time the amount of memory used by gnome-system-monitor is continuously growing. In ten days gnome-system- monitor uses already 7Gb. It makes the system start to use swap and it makes a negative impact on the whole system performance. After closing gnome-system-monitor and starting again it uses about the same 52-53Mb of RAM. + + It is noted that the memory consumption is growing significantly if the + Resources tab with charts is opened for a long period of time. If the + Processes tab is opened then there is a very small growth of memory + consumption, probably even within the margin of error. Expected Result: gnome-system-monitor uses about the same RAM regardless of how much time it is working Actual Result: gnome-system-monitor uses 7Gb of RAM after 10 days of working while right after start it normally uses about 52-53Mb of memory $ lsb_release -rd No LSB modules are available.
