Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Steven Scott (progoth) Assigned to: Daniel Atallah (datallah) Summary: HUGE memory leak in beta6 - tabs on left bug? Initial Comment: I have 3 accounts signed on - AIM, Yahoo!, and GTalk. Generally only AIM is used. Tabs are displayed on the left of the chat window. My friend who is also seeing this leak also has left tabs and mostly uses AIM, although not for chat rooms. My first tab is an AIM chat room that is on my buddy list with an alias. If i alt tab to the window, Private Bytes as displayed by Process Explorer goes up 24KB. Every time i type a keystroke, including backspace, memory under Private Bytes goes up 12 - 24KB. Gaim 2b6 regularly gets to 500megs private/virtual before quitting it/crashing/killing it. I JUST tried changing tabs to Top instead of Left (which I hate, you get drastically fewer tabs that way) and restarting gaim, and memory doesn't seem to be growing like before. Closed the window, switched to tabs on Left, opened chat back up. Memory started growing again at every keystroke. Went up to 30 megs from 24 or 26. Closed the window, switched to Top tabs. Opened chat, memory stopped increasing. Noticed memory had dropped down to 26. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Philippe Ombredanne (pombredanne) Date: 2007-02-14 18:54 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=879778 Originator: NO I am not sure any of the commenst below makes sens. I am experiencing the same issue. Tabs on left, with sevral IRC and IM accounts (it really does not matter how many) Gaim slowly leaks memory and crashes afetr about one hours or less. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Daniel Atallah (datallah) Date: 2007-02-10 06:47 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=325843 Originator: NO This is the following GTK+ bug: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=403470 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Daniel Atallah (datallah) Date: 2007-01-24 15:54 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=325843 Originator: NO I chose the wrong canned response... I meant to choose the "GTK+ Bug" on, but chose the gadu-gadu one instead. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Steven Scott (progoth) Date: 2007-01-24 15:20 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=61663 Originator: YES I think that comment got misplaced, if you need to put it on a different bug... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Daniel Atallah (datallah) Date: 2007-01-24 15:11 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=325843 Originator: NO This is going to be related to the changes that were made in 2.10.7 for tabs somewhere other than on top in the MS-Windows (GTK-WIMP) GTK+ theme. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Daniel Atallah (datallah) Date: 2007-01-24 15:11 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=325843 Originator: NO the Gadu-Gadu maintainer has left the project, and none of the rest of us have any significant ability to use a protocol where almost everyone is speaking polish. Please provide a patch for this. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=680472&aid=1643832&group_id=235 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
