#901: slow memory leak in pavucontrol ---------------------------+------------------------------------------------ Reporter: oliverhenshaw | Owner: lennart Type: defect | Status: new Milestone: | Component: pavucontrol Keywords: | ---------------------------+------------------------------------------------ Pavucontrol slowly leaks memory as streams are created and destroyed while pavucontrol is open.
First noticed with http://www.mojang.com/notch/ld12/breaking/ - a java game with no soundtrack and frequent event sounds (at least with java-1.6.0-openjdk-plugin-1.6.0.0-48.1.8.4.fc13.x86_64, java-1.6.0-openjdk-1.6.0-51.1.9.5.fc16.x86_64 seems to be better behaved). After a bit more investigation, I found that this leak is easy to reproduce - run "while true; do paplay /usr/share/sounds/KDE-Sys-Log- Out.ogg; done" and watch memory use grow with smem. The memory is not reclaimed when the spammy loop is killed. -- Ticket URL: <http://pulseaudio.org/ticket/901> PulseAudio <http://pulseaudio.org/> The PulseAudio Sound Server _______________________________________________ pulseaudio-tickets mailing list pulseaudio-tickets@mail.0pointer.de https://tango.0pointer.de/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-tickets
