Bug ID: 460813 Summary: Unknown memory usage after screen lock Classification: Plasma Product: kscreenlocker Version: 5.26.1 Platform: Other OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org Reporter: ruzgardeniz...@hotmail.com CC: bhus...@gmail.com Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY When I unlock the screen by typing password and hitting enter after locking the screen or suspending the computer, I observe significant increase in memory usage. This behavior does not happen all the time. it can happen randomly after several days of uptime. The interesting part is that I cannot see which application uses the memory. Even after logging out the KDE session, memory usage is just there. I could not debug this behavior and I hope to find some help from KDE devs. An example of memory usage history: * Before the lock or suspend, it is 10GB. * After the unlocking, 20GB. * After logging out, 10GB. I can be sure that it happens just after the unlock and displaying the desktop since I can feel the desktop getting sluggish for a second. One additional note, the lock screen turns off the screen to save power, after a couple seconds, the screen turns on again - I could not find a way to turn off my screen from KDE. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Lock the screen 2. Unlock the screen OBSERVED RESULT The system memory usage spikes. EXPECTED RESULT The system memory should remain same SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: Linux/KDE Plasma: Gentoo, kde-plasma/plasma-meta-5.26.1::gentoo (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.26.1 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.99.0 Qt Version: 5.15.5 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION uname: Linux 6.0.2-gentoo-bwqr-x86_64 #2 SMP PREEMPT Wed Oct 19 22:04:33 +03 2022 x86_64 AMD Ryzen 5 5600X 6-Core Processor AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux gpu: amd rx 580 mesa: 22.2.1 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
