Title:
gnome-shell uses too much memory
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
After running for a few weeks, gnome-shell is using more memory than
is reasonable:
PID USER PRI NI VIRT RES SHR S CPU% MEM% TIME+ Command
1692 robin 20 0 4380M 956M 48792 S 0.7 6.0 12h59:46
/usr/bin/gnome-shell
as time goes on, it tends to slowly creep up. Unfortunately it is
harder to restart than something like Firefox. If you kill it, it
doesn't automatically come back.
