[Bug 569273] Re: memory leak in gnome-power-manager
I have looked into this and have a fix and an explanation. First, please be mindful of this bugs many subscribers before following up with non-technical comments. The bug appears to be in libappindicator itself. The call to app_indicator_set_menu leaks the old menu every time a new menu is passed in. It should instead sink any floating ref on the old menu than just unconditionally adding a new reference (see [1] for technical details on what the heck that means). There's actually two possible ways to fix this. (A) change libappindicator to sink the ref, which would arguably be an API change. Or (B) change gnome-power-manager to manually unref the menu after passing it to libappindicator. I'm going with (A) for now and have filed a patch against libappindicator [2]. I suspect that even if method (A) is approved and merged for natty, method (B) is most appropriate for any possible SRUs.

I am seeing the same thing with Gnome-Power-Manager, Opera 11.01 and touchthesky 1.14 (a weather monitoring widget installed with Opera). All three slowly increase mem usage until all 6 gig on this machine are consumed. Ubuntu 10.04 64.

ATI graphics on home, Nvidia on office. Same wireless mouse & keyboard. All the same major Apps installed on both machines - both machines kept updated - On the office machine power manager stays at a consistent 1.9 meg, Opera between 200 & 400 meg depending on how many tabs I leave open - Touchthesky also doesn't change the memory used with time.

[Bug 569273] Re: memory leak in gnome-power-manager
I am not sure if yet another "me too" helps anything, but I am seeing this problem on a ubuntu 10.10 x86 desktop. Despite being a desktop, gnome-power-manager sees some action because it warns when the mouse (logitech mx1000) battery gets low. On this computer gnome-power-manager now takes 102636kB (Size from /proc/pid/smaps) after five days of uptime. The computer is always on and after about a month gnome-power-manager has to be killed and restarted because the overall performance starts to degrade caused by wasted memory. Gnome-power-manager does not seem to ever get swapped out and stays in RAM, so it must access all that allocated memory quite often. I am not sure which menu icons matter, but for example gedit does not show icons in file/edit/etc menus, but gnome-panel shows them in applications/places/system menus. There is no interface tab in gnome- appearance-properties to change the setting. BTW, why is this bug hidden when searching "gnome-power-manager memory leak" in bugs.ubuntu.com?

[Bug 569273] Re: memory leak in gnome-power-manager
I'm new to this bug. But I have noticed in my case that over time, the g-p-m memory usage grows steadily to many tens of MB. I don't remember a case where g-p-m grows to 500 MB. I just restarted and it used ~8.5MB. I'm using this on a laptop which is running of A/C most of the time but sometimes it runs on battery. And it is suspended and resume day after day (and brought with me to home and office); and the OS/desktop is not typically restarted after 1 month or more. After ~13 days it grew to something like 30 MB. So not as fast as the problem reported here, but still bad. I made g-p-m not show anything except when running on battery and when battery is actually charging.

[Bug 569273] Re: memory leak in gnome-power-manager
Not a fix, but a workaround: Each time app_indicator_set_menu() is called, we leak by 200k. so, I reduced the number of times it gets called. (Currently called any time a device is updated, which seems to happen every 30 seconds. Devices are updated even if nothing has changed.) I'm rather novice, so I've probably fudged something else up by doing this. It works for me (desktop, wireless mouse being the only battery indicator I have) I couldn't make heads or tails of the actual leak itself, though. The attached patch has been applied to package, and uploaded to my ppa:aaron-haviland/ppa for Maverick.

[Bug 569273] Re: memory leak in gnome-power-manager
I am using 10.10 too and had a contact failure in the cable between my laptop and my charger which seemd like the AC adapter was disconnected and connected back very rapidly and very frequently. I've fixed the cable but still, every time I unplug and plug back the AC adapter gnome-power-manager's RSS goes up (about 200k), also the RSS goes upwhen the battery finishes charging. I'm not sure what the normal memory usage of gnome-power-manager should be but before I fixed the cable gnome-power-manager consumed all my 4GB RAM in under 3 hours which was horrible. My workaround is that I restart gnome-power-manager every 15 minutes using a cronjob. The script is very simple, I copy here in case anyone needs a workaround until the bug is fixed: --- CUT HERE --- #!/bin/sh export DISPLAY=:0 killall -q gnome-power-manager gnome-power-manager >/dev/null 2>&1 & --- CUT HERE --- Save the text between the CUT HERE markers into a file, for example /usr/local/bin/gpmrestart, then type into a terminal crontab -e and enter this line: */15 * * * * /usr/local/bin/gpmrestart This workaround seems not to have any sideeffect (except that the battery icon flickers every 15 minutes), I've been using it for several months.

No shame in using Windows. Luckily for my job I get to use Linux a lot. Your .log is pretty much the same as mine.

You are definitely running the latest libdbusmenu. Based on what you are saying, there could be another leak somewhere. Does it go away if you pull out the battery? If you look at comment #43, there are some commands you can run to get a better idea of what is going on. The sequence is: battery -> kernel -> upowerd -> dbus -> gnome-power- manager -> appindicator (Also by the way I am not the bug fixer, or a full time Ubuntu developer.

I can confirm this is now fixed for me in Maverick. I tested it by upgrading to Maverick Beta and the leak is gone.
