Ok, I tested your layout.
My findings are the following:
1. The issue probably is something in TopPanel and I believe is something with
a hungry applet and not latte and probably how qml works
2. Let me give you some infos: in QML that Plasma is based up on when something
is created it takes up some memory, when that QML-thing is deleted is not
releasing that memory directly. At least this is what Plasma/Qt devs are
saying. Finding memory leaks in QML I really do not have any idea what is the
proper way to track them down and identify them. To test this you can do the
following. Add a secodary plasma panel. Play a bit with that newly created
plasma panel and delete afterwards. You will NOT notice a memory drop.
Qt/Plasma devs are saying that QML based on memory criteria at some point will
release that memory either because it will understand that is not used any more
either because the system's memory is reaching a critical point.
I used your layout but with NO following applets which are not present in my
system:
- launchpadPlasmaMod
- org.communia.apptitle
- org.kde.plasma.bigSur-inlineBatter
- org.kpple.kppleMenu
- SimplePager
I tried to reproduce the MemoryIrrational bug and reached at about 390Mbyte
this is by triggering applets popups such Networks, Bluetooth, Clock, Systray
and switching between different windows. The more I was using this the more the
increase was lower and lower so I think it is increasing but at some point it
will probably stop.
7. In your system have you reached in memory usage more than 800Mbyte?
IN ORDER TO CONFIRM THAT THIS IS NOT LATTE SPECIFIC RELATED, I added a Plasma
Empty Panel and added in it the mentioned applets, Global Menu, SysTray,
Bluetooth, Clock, Networks and replicated the user behavior. Same memory
findings were found, plasmashell process was increasing but lower increase at
each time.
I think the most hungry was the Networks applet.
Based on previous testing I am not sure that this is Latte-related or
Plasma-related or QML-related.
The bug report will remain OPEN for all future users that would like to be
informed about this.
