Title:
apparent memory usage regression - not getting freed?
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
In eoan on a 5.3 kernel, have noticed a few incidents of the system
becoming sluggish/unresponsive, which appears to be caused by low
available memory. top is reporting 13 of 16G are "used", but adding
up the memory reported by top sorted by memory usage appears like it
should be closer to 3-4G "used".
Attaching two top screenshots, one shows 3.3G used and system behaving
well, the other shows 14G used and system lagging. In both cases,
approximately the same programs are being run taking up approximately
the same amount of resident memory, so not sure where all the memory
usage is coming from.
