--- Comment #7 from Phil KdeBugs <phil3em...@earthlink.net> --- Hi, This might help. My workstation has 256GB of memory, so I had plenty of time to catch plasmashell in the act of chewing up all the memory it could. When I first caught it , it has reached 1.5GB!! This is a brand new install of debian stretch, completely up-to-date (30Sep2017). I attached the debug trace when I attached GDB and saw where it was stuck. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
