After trying for nearly two weeks, I have to face up to the fact that I'm not able to reproduce the bug anymore. I'm not sure if this is due to patches and / or product updates, but I have been running my music program more or less constantly and I haven't had virtual memory rising on me as I

I have used System Monitor to kill the gvfsd process and that has released the consumed swap, confirming my suspicions that gvfsd was responsible for consuming the memory. Since gvfsd automatically gets restarted, that kind of works for me, but I hope you agree it's not a very good solution. --

the usual way to get logs for those is to rename gvfsd to gvfds.bin and create a gvfsd which calls valgrind on gvfsd.bin -- gvfsd allocates huge amounts of memory while playing audio files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/316093 You received this bug notification because you are a member of
