ubuntu 16.04 lts, default installation and the bug persists exactly as
described in posts #22 & #23
Steps to reproduce:
1/ Open a folder with more than 10.000 images
2/ See memory usage by nautilus climbing to several gigs
3/ Closing the folder does not change anything
4/ kill nautilus and
I can confirm that there is a memory leak in Nautilus when looking at an
image folder with an high zoom level, even as a list. I'm looking at my
Dropbox Camera Uploads folder and in a couple of minutes of scrolling
back and forth, selecting and deleting images, Nautilus memory usage has
grown of
I don't know if there are multiple memory leaks, but I am reporting on
this one. The Bugzilla report is not relevant to my particular version
as one comment on Bugzilla says this:
Obviously also related to wcslen so correctly closed as NOTABUG in
Nautilus because it is not a bug in Nautilus.
Same issue.
After hours it eats more and more RAM.
I have no plugins installed or any customization.
Sometimes when I do many tasks, the RAM is near to full (I have ~4.3G),
Nautilus eats most of it.
(I will try to post an screenshot later)
Ubuntu 13.10
Linux x 3.11.0-13-generic #20-Ubuntu SMP
unfortunatly those reports of it's using nG of ram after a day are not
that useful without steps to reproduce :/ The issue is not happening to
everybody, or we would hear more about it/some of us would be able to
reproduce. The comments suggests that some of the issues are due to
plugins or
I just reinstalled Ubuntu and this time the 32bit version. I will keep
an eye on memory usage, and if it's still eating GB's of RAM I'll come
back to this thread and request help debugging it.

Check this out.
I had the same isue after installing subclipse in eclipse.
I also had installed a few months ago RabitVCS plugin for nautilus.
The symptoms was all the same with the ones you mentioning plus that
python was also mem leaking!
I removed rabitVCS cli, plugin and everything runs

I'm also on Precise and confirm this bug it's really annoying a lot!
In my case Nautilus regularly eats memory while simply copying files.
I've started to copy a large tree of small files two days ago in the morning
from an USB disk to another; the copy was the only process in a
how did you measure the ram usage in that scenario of the multiple
copies?

Same here with Nautilus 3.4.2.
nautilus uses 9,6 GB of RAM after running ubuntu for 14 hours.
I browsed some files, moved little text files and images (none of them are more
than 2 MB). I ve opened a new Nautilus window ca. 20 times in 14 hours. If it
matters: like the original reporter I also
Damn,
in my case it seems that variety is the problem. Everytime the desktop
background is changed nautilus increases his RAM usage by ca. 300 MB which
seems to be the default usage for one nautilus instance.
I used gnome-tweak-tool to disable the option, that nautilus manages my desktop
I can still confirm this bug has yet to be fixed. This is also happening
in 32bit and has nothing to do with the appmenu. I have deleted this
from the start. Abnormal memory usage is leaking through nautilus and no
window needs to be open for it to happen. This is critical for a system
with low
I had the same problem on Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS 64bits. I left my computer
running during the week-end (with 4 programs running with 100Mio usage
each) and I ended up with nautilus eating 3 Gio RAM. It was the limit of
my RAM and I was lucky enough to have enough responsiveness when I came
back to
I can confirm this bug on Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS. It mostly appears when I
am working with a large number of files. Memory usage goes from ~60 MiB
at startup to 160 MiB after 10h of usage.

I'm also seeing this bug on Precise 64-bit, but for me Nautilus grows to
eat several GiB of RAM (that's RSS, sometimes up to 8 GiB of VIRT)
before I (have to) kill it...
Just like the original reporter, some Nautilus windows/tabs might show
directories with a lot (thousands) of files and/or
Sorry, for the confusing comment. I actually wanted to point out that
'appmenu-gtk' could/might be a possible reason.

It looks like Nautilus blows up to ridiculous amounts of RAM in
conjunction with appmenu-gtk: Bug #788973 . This behaviour is known
