Title:
Gnome shell huge memory usage
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
I have no idea why, but after half a day or so of usage, gnome-shell
uses 1.4 GB of memory. I have never seen an OS where the shell is so
"hungry", there seem to be lots of memory leaks. Good the system has
12 GB of RAM, otherwise I would have lots of swap. Unity never did not
do things like this, I really hope there will be a fix soon.
