[Bug 1585551] Re: gnome-settings-daemon leaking memory after idle
FIX: Finally found a solution that does not require me to disable screen blanking and turning my monitors off physically: 1. Run dconf-editor 2. org > gnome > settings-daemon > plugins > power 3. "Set to Default" on ALL keys (this sets GNOME to never blank the screen since "sleep-inactive-ac-timeout" and "sleep-inactive-battery-timeout" defaults to 0), then UNCHECK "active", so it is false 4. Run a command at login like this: "bash -c "sleep 10 && xset dpms 0 0 900" (sleep for 10 seconds avoids GNOME taking over) 5. I also disabled the "housekeeping", "orientation" and "xrandr" plugins as they are not needed for me I strongly suspect it has to do with my dual monitor setup (DVI and HDMI), and that the bug may exist in newer GNOME versions as well. Will check later with a live USB stick.

Running Alt + F2 and then "r" to restart GNOME Shell helps speed up everything again, because AFAIK it restarts gnome-settings-daemon, but after that it still uses relatively much more RAM than after a reboot. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1585551 Title: gnome-settings-daemon leaking memory after idle To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/1585551/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Running Valgrind as described here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1321995 ...I get the content in the attachment, not very helpful it seems? Also see my screenshot above. Note: It should be noted that I run a dual monitor setup with one monitor on DVI and another on HDMI. Saw a forum post or something suggesting that it could affect it. I don't have a way to know. But it only happens on this computer, not on a Intel NUC running the same distro (but not same HW) connected to my TV. ** Bug watch added: Red Hat Bugzilla #1321995 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1321995 ** Attachment added: "valgrind.log" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/1585551/+attachment/4827649/+files/valgrind.log -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1585551 Title: gnome-settings-daemon leaking memory after idle To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/1585551/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Same her on Ubuntu GNOME 16.04 64-bit with GNOME 3 Team PPA. gnome- settings-daemon can eat up my 8 GB RAM after time, and then desktop 3D animations are very slow/choppy. Solution is to log out and in again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1585551 Title: gnome-settings-daemon leaking memory after idle To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/1585551/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
