Bug#909682: Bug #909682: Memory leak with gst_tag_list_add_id3_image
So, as promised, I've been playing that album again, and it's again leaking memory. I tried a few things to get it to free the memory. Putting tracks from a different album in the middle didn't do it. Neither did deleting the rest of the album from the playlist and playing something else (in fact, it continued to leak — just <1MB at a time, presumably due to the new album having a single smaller picture). Maybe it's also really noticeable because there are 29 large pictures attached to each track. I got a better backtrack from gdb: Thread 23 "task116" hit Breakpoint 1, 0x7f89dd9fe320 in gst_tag_list_add_id3_image () from /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgsttag-1.0.so.0 (gdb) bt #0 0x7f89dd9fe320 in gst_tag_list_add_id3_image () at /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgsttag-1.0.so.0 #1 0x7f8998013b00 in gst_flac_parse_handle_picture (buffer=0x7f88d814bce0, flacparse=0x7f891e1c3690 [GstFlacParse]) at /usr/include/gstreamer-1.0/gst/base/gstbytereader.h:651 #2 0x7f8998013b00 in gst_flac_parse_handle_block_type (sbuffer=0x7f88d814bce0, type=6, flacparse=0x7f891e1c3690 [GstFlacParse]) at gstflacparse.c:1520 #3 0x7f8998013b00 in gst_flac_parse_parse_frame (frame=0x7f89250505e0, frame=0x7f89250505e0, size=301495, parse=0x7f891e1c3690 [GstFlacParse]) at gstflacparse.c:1574 #4 0x7f8998013b00 in gst_flac_parse_handle_frame (parse=0x7f891e1c3690 [GstFlacParse], frame=0x7f89250505e0, skipsize=) at gstflacparse.c:870 #5 0x7f89dcce46b2 in gst_base_parse_handle_buffer (parse=parse@entry=0x7f891e1c3690 [GstFlacParse], buffer=, skip=skip@entry=0x7f895fffe75c, flushed=flushed@entry=0x7f895fffe758) at gstbaseparse.c:2160 #6 0x7f89dcce4d8f in gst_base_parse_scan_frame (parse=parse@entry=0x7f891e1c3690 [GstFlacParse], klass=) at gstbaseparse.c:3464 #7 0x7f89dcce8302 in gst_base_parse_loop (pad=) at gstbaseparse.c:3543 #8 0x7f89dcc30f41 in gst_task_func (task=0x7f897c237050 [GstTask]) at gsttask.c:332 #9 0x7f89dcdb0ad3 in g_thread_pool_thread_proxy (data=) at ../../../../glib/gthreadpool.c:307 #10 0x7f89dcdb0135 in g_thread_proxy (data=0x7f8924ffb0f0) at ../../../../glib/gthread.c:784 #11 0x7f89dd154f2a in start_thread (arg=0x7f895700) at pthread_create.c:463 #12 0x7f89db094edf in clone () at ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/clone.S:95 (gdb) c Continuing.

Bug#909682: Bug #909682: Memory leak with gst_tag_list_add_id3_image
It went away at some point after that and I haven't seen it since... but you all are right, it might be file-specific. I plopped "lastplayed:>62d lastplayed:<64d" into the filter box, which should get to what I was playing around the time of that bug report, and it appears it was https://musicbrainz.org/release/db77f67d-9e9b-4623-8ea1-baab173cbe49 — which is weird, because that file shouldn't be any different than most of the others in my collection: it was ripped from CD to FLAC with morituri, replaygain added with metaflac, cover art scanned & uploaded to Cover Art Archive then put in the files w/ tags via Picard. It is a long album (19 discs total, FLAC files are 11GB total). Maybe that's it. Anyway, in the next few days I'll try playing that album again and see what happens.

Unfortunately I never received a heaptrack report that shows this allocation as leaked on my test system. Was this a different heaptrack version or I just used it wrong? Also a valgrind run did not show a leak at this location. > I have no idea why that backtrace doesn't show any Clementine code in > it.

Bug#909682: Memory leak with gst_tag_list_add_id3_image
Package: clementine Version: 1.3.1+git565-gd20c2244a+dfsg-1 Severity: normal I'm not sure if this is a Clementine bug or a Gstreamer bug, but I've noticed that when I leave Clementine running for a bit, its memory usage grows massive (many GiB). I'm playing almost exlusively FLAC files, which all have (fairly large) embedded artwork, multiple images per file. I used heaptrack to attempt to track down where the memory leak is. This is after only a day or two of use: MEMORY LEAKS 857.27MB leaked over 2418654 calls from g_malloc in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libglib-2.0.so.0 826.58MB leaked over 1941 calls from: g_slice_alloc in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libglib-2.0.so.0 0x7fe9ca6e49d0 in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgstreamer-1.0.so.0 gst_buffer_new_allocate in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgstreamer-1.0.so.0 gst_tag_image_data_to_image_sample in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgsttag-1.0.so.0 gst_tag_list_add_id3_image in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgsttag-1.0.so.0 0x7fe994f1ca1f in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gstreamer-1.0/libgstaudioparsers.so 0x7fe9ca8116b1 in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgstbase-1.0.so.0 0x7fe9ca811d8e in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgstbase-1.0.so.0 0x7fe9ca815301 in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgstbase-1.0.so.0 0x7fe9ca75df40 in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgstreamer-1.0.so.0 0x7fe9ca8ddad2 in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libglib-2.0.so.0 0x7fe9ca8dd134 in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libglib-2.0.so.0 start_thread in /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0 __clone in /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 I have no idea why that backtrace doesn't show any Clementine code in it. I tried installing some more -dbg/-dbgsym packages, but maybe I had to do it before starting Clementine.
