I have the same problem with a box upgraded from Karmic. Gnome, I almost exclusively use Firefox, Thunderbird 3, gnome-terminal and pidgin. No process has apparent high memory consumption. RAM is hardly used, with 1.2G of 2G swapped. Gets gradually worse until one has to restart after a couple of days. High I/O wait. ureadahead is removed/purged but it hasn't become much better. Memory/Swap is not reclaimed when I do a full logout/login cycle, so I don't think it's an application with a memory leak. -- My swap memory gets full after 5-6hours of computer usage on 10.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/560859 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Another observation is that when I try to disable swap when the system becomes so slow, sudo swapoff -a It fails, and gives an error like Cannot allocate memory. I'm wondering if this is related to xorg or intel video driver. When the memory is occupied, cat /proc/dri/0/gem_objects shows more than 1G object bytes. I remember last year, there was a serious memory leakage in intel video driver.

[Bug 560859] Re: My swap memory gets full after 5-6hours of computer usage on 10.04
After uninstalling ureadahead (and restarting) the very high memory usage remains. I also installed the Karmic kernel 2.6.31-20 but the problem remains. So I think that ureadahead and the kernel are not the problem. But which component is? I attach a screenshot displaying htop. From the RAM 518 MB are only applications. The rest should be cache and buffer, but I don't think it is, the swap wouldn't be ~1.2 GB full. If I don't do anything. After some hours the ram and swap usage is the same, but If I open and close programs, the ram and swap usage increases. In the screenshot it is possible to see that Xorg is using 3.9% of the memory (only from the RAM?), and it is the process that used the most of the memory! How can we find which program / process has the problem? ** Attachment added: htop screenshot displaying 1.2 GB swap used. http://launchpadlibrarian.net/44754243/high_memory_usage.png -- My swap memory gets full after 5-6hours of computer usage on 10.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/560859 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Since some days this happens to me too. Is this bug not duplicate or related to bug 501715 ? At least I think it is ureadahead fault, because htop doesn't display any process consuming that much of memory. In a Kubuntu 10.04 system with only Firefox running, the swap is now 890 MB full, in Karmic it was at most ~130 MB used.

Yes I checked that but the program that used the most memory was Alarm Clock which used ~40MiB and it was the only program running, not even Empathy was running. After I closed Alarm Clock 0.05GiB of space on my swap partition freed, going to 1.55GiB used, and than I was able to start Firefox, which then used the free swap space leaving RAM alone (same usage as before I launched Firefox). When I tried to launch Firefox when swap space was full it just crashed on startup, which took a considerable amount of time (~30-40 seconds).

System Monitor is hiding some memory usage information by default, try to activate some of the other memory usage related columns in the settings for system monitor and see if it can give some clues to what is leaking.
