I can confirm the memory problem, though whether it's a leak or just memory not
being released I don't know. Plasmashell doesn't seem to grow overnight or when
the machine is idle, but any interaction with the desktop will increase
plasmashell's resident memory. At start it's usually 173Mb, then depending on
what I'm doing, will increase in 4-5Mb chunks or more. After just a few hours
it can be as much as 400-500Mb. It will continue to grow if I let it, I've had
it over a gig before, but now I usually kill plasmashell and restart it once or
twice a day.
System specs:
KDE Plasma Version: 5.8.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.28.0
Qt Version: 5.7.0
Kernel Version: 4.8.10-1-ARCH
Processors: 4xIntel Core i5-3470 CPU @ 3.20GHz
Memory: 8 GiB
Video: NVIDIA GF108 [GeForce GT 630]
Driver: NVIDIA 375.20
The system is Arch with all the latest updates from the stable repos. I've
tried the 'QSG_RENDER_LOOP=basic' with no effect. Tried changing rendering
backends (OpenGL 3.1, 2.0 and xrender), switching to the nouveau driver, no
noticeable difference. Kinfo reports almost all the used memory is held in the
heap.
Any other information I can add that may be helpful in tracking this down, just
ask.
