I switch off all the extensions except for Ubuntu ones. Every lock/unlock action raises the memory usage by ~10MB until it reaches ~280MB. Super-A (app overview) raised further the usage.
After a while something happend (Not lock/unlock or Super-A) and now the memory usage of gnome-shell is 302MB and is not changing. What is the normal memory usage of gnome-shell? Is it normal (what I have described) or it should stay at the beginning level? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1946970 Title: Memory leak in gnome-shell after lock and unlock the screen Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: When the screen is locked and unlocked extra ~100MB memory remains in use and never freed up.
