Title:
major memory leak on plasmashell
To manage notificatio
I am having a similar problem here with the newest Kubuntu (KDE 5.38).
I have the impression the problem is coming from the Slideshow on the desktop,
and my huge monitor resolution. plasmashell uses an incredible amount of 10g of
resident memory on a fresh restart (killall plasmashell; kstart pla
In the midst of 2017, the memory leak still exists...
I'd like to help you, if I can.

I also see this memory leak with the nvidia driver v346 and the nouveau

Holy shit !
I confirm that it seems to have solved the issue here too. I switched from
nouveau to nvidia 340 for my GeForce 8400 GS, and now, the memory seems to have

Thanks !

Update: Looks like i found something...
I switched for my NV GTS450 from the "nouveau" to the "nvidia" (non-free)
driver. Now the memory leak seemingly disappeared. Huh? Crazy!
After 2h plasmashell stays still at 150-160 Kibibyte.
Can someone reproduce this? Hope it helps. Greets

Yeah, plasmashell is too big a beast to ever work without issue.
Breaking it up into smaller apps would help a lot.
BTW, I added a valgrind log of an idle plasmashell, which is using ~15%
CPU, and increasing its memory usage by ~4MB/min

I see something similar. After 12h running without any action on my part
(during the night), plasmashell went from ~130MB of RAM to ~2GB, with a
