--- Comment #8 from Nicolas Frattaroli <kdeb...@fratti.ch> ---
I've applied the patch to plasmashell 5.11.5, and tested it.

The good news is that it drastically reduced the memory usage from the
notification spam. Even after minutes of waiting, plasmashell only climbed up
to about 400 MiB used memory. I could even open the notifications area this
time, which previously would immediately OOM the system.

The bad news is that when dismissing the notifications (which I previously
couldn't do, because the system was very busy), the memory usage actually
increases by about 300K per dismissed notification. It doesn't seem to decrease
again after waiting a while either. (The lack of a "dismiss all" button for the
notification applet also means that a user has to do a solid 10 minutes of
clicking to get their notifications back in order)

Seems good enough for now though, the memory leak is much much smaller now.
