SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug
symbols.
See
https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
***
Whenever I lock my screen plamsashell starts to use more and more memory until
it gets killed by the kernel.
This doesn't happen if I switch the rendering backend from automatic to
software.
I did run valgrind to see if it logs anything, but unfortunately it didn't.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set rendering backend to automatic (default)
2. Lock screen
3. Wait
OBSERVED RESULT
Eventually plasma will use up too much memory and the kernel will kill it.
EXPECTED RESULT
Plasma not using up memory
