Just consumed 18 GB of my memory and started swapping my disk :( 03-Ubuntu SMP Fri Aug 14 21:42:59 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (Server Edition) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/987060 Title: massive memory leak in unity-panel-service and hud-service when invoking the hud on Firefox profiles with large amounts of bookmarks LTS 12.04 14.04 Status in Unity HUD: Confirmed Status in Application Menu Indicator: Confirmed Status in Unity: Won't Fix Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in hud package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in unity package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: unity-panel-service and hud-service quickly racks up memory and CPU usage until I kill it when invoking the HUD on Firefox. It's taking anywhere from a few minutes to half an hour, but it sometimes makes the system completely unusable. 1. run Firefox 12.0 in the foreground 2. hit Alt to bring up HUD 3. type any text 4. select one proposal from HUD 5. wait for unity-panel-service and hud-service to fill up the remaining RAM and swap space. This is due to a high number of bookmarks in a user profile (hundreds).
