Thanks. Your 'freshstatus.txt' seems to show gnome-shell's real memory usage is below 500MB. That's not high enough to affect performance though. So if you experience interactive performance problems then they are NOT due to the memory usage. Please log such CPU bugs separately.

Although that also assumes using Intel graphics. Next please: 1. Run: lspci -k > lspcik.txt and send us the resulting file 'lspcik.txt'. 2.
