[Bug 1884850] Re: Xorg server uses unacceptably large amounts of memory (and keep growing) when LibreOffice is running
One point of observation. Since this time, I am switching to Debian 10 for daily work because I couldn't bear X11 memory growth. The package information for my Debian install: * xserver-xorg version 1:7.7+19 * xserver-xorg-video-intel version 2:2.99.917+git20180925-2 * linux-image-4.19.0-17-amd64 version 4.19.194-3 (stock kernel, unmodified) This does not produce the same kind of unabated memory growth. Please let me know if anything can be done to help diagnose the problem. I have not gotten rid of the Ubuntu 20.04 install yet, though I had switched to xfce for daily work, before eventually I installed Debian 10. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1884850 Title: Xorg server uses unacceptably large amounts of memory (and keep growing) when LibreOffice is running To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1884850/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Dave, I am suspecting a bug with the X hardware driver. Can you please describe the machine you are using. Plus produce the output of "lspci" and "lsmod"?

[Bug 1884850] Re: Xorg server uses unacceptably large amounts of memory (and keep growing) when LibreOffice is running
Here is a fuller analysis (see next attachment, Xfce- session-20200922-analysis.html). I started LibreOffice on 9/22 nearly exclusively on a new Xfce session. (Except for the MATE terminal app, again). I edited a few documents, as indicated in the analysis. Every time without exception, the X pixmap memory usage grew. My previous attachment (graph) showed that the X memory usage eventually exploded after an extended period of time the LO Writer app was open--nearly a month. This time, I did not do that. But I managed to show in the graph that almost every document edit leads to a significant increase in the X pixmap memory usage (5 MB, 10 MB, and even 20 MB just looking at the graph). The problem is, once the LibreOffice is closed, the X pixmap memory usage won't shrink anymore. I do have the xrestop snapshots of the LibreOffice usage but haven't had chance to process the data to graph it. Ask me if that is desired. But I will send the script that polls the memory usage as a second attachment in case that is useful for others to monitor the memory growth. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1884850 Title: Xorg server uses unacceptably large amounts of memory (and keep growing) when LibreOffice is running To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1884850/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
