Title:
Excessive memory usage by unity-webapps-context-daemon
Status in WebApps: libunity:
Fix Committed
Status in “libunity-webapps” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
unity-webapps-context-daemon uses way too much memory for an application that
simply gives me an icon to click on to get to a web application. This can be
done with zero memory usage with a revolutionary technology called a
"bookmark." For example, Facebook is currently using 80M RES / 473M VIRT:
/usr/lib/libunity-webapps/unity-webapps-context-daemon facebook facebook.com
icon://unity-webapps-facebook [Invalid UTF-8]
I've seen it get as high as 120M RES before. This is crazy! Combine
that with Google+, using 25M, Google Calendar with 15M, another 15M
for Lauchpad, and Gmail with an unexpectedly low 6M, and another 3M
for the unity-webapps-service, and we reach an appalling 141M RES
memory being used. I really want Webapps to be useful, but until this
memory situation is resolved, it makes no sense for me (or anyone
else) to leave it enabled sucking up memory when the only
functionality they give is that of some fancy bookmarks.
