[Bug 328232] Re: [Jaunty][UXA]compiz.real memory leak
Sebastian i don't have a clue what that option means, but it obviously fixed the memory leak bug. By the way this options showed up while I was working with python. When I typed help() in python and than used modules command, python started scanning the modules and somehow restarted compiz with this options (probably some kind of bug). All I know that memory got cleaned and there was no memory leak anymore. I am mentioning this because I use Compiz Fusion Icon. It's an application that sits in the notification area and allows you easy access to compiz options etc. There is a checkbox in the popup meny you get when you click on this icon, that allows you to chose Indirect rendering as option for compiz. But it doesn't work. If you choose Indirect rendering in this menu, the memory leak was still present.

Using indirect rendering option for compiz solves this memory leak. 1. Press ALT+F2 and type: gksudo gedit /usr/bin/compiz or open your console and type: sudo gedit /usr/bin/compiz 2. At line 74 (or round 74) edit the line : COMPIZ_OPTIONS=--ignore-desktop-hints --replace and changed it into: COMPIZ_OPTIONS=--replace --sm-disable --ignore-desktop-hints ccp --indirect-rendering After this there was no compiz memory leak. The compiz bug report mentions that with indirect rendering enabled, there is another problem, like a bug in rendering transparent windows, but that bug does not appear at my system. All this is done in combination with xf86-video-intel 2.7.99.1+git2009 from https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa and all the other updates from that repository (mesa, dri2 etc.) and also kernel 2.6.30. -- [Jaunty][UXA]compiz.real memory leak https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/328232 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I'm having the same problem in Ubuntu 9.04 with intel GMA950 graphics. I use intel drivers from xorg-edgers PPA. i am still not sure if it is compiz bug or a intel driver bug or something else. All I know is that after a few hours or mostly a day of usage of my system, the swap drive is getting full (compiz.real uses 1.3GB od virtual memory) and I get noticeable slowdown of the system. Also because I keep firefox open all the time, there appears a problem with font rendering of the new pages I open. Some of the letters become weird, if I zoom in or out the text, some of the letters become readable again, while others become scrambled. Considering the fact that my system is anything but a standard 9.04 installation (because of the now famous Intel graphic driver fiasco) I am not really sure what part of the system to really blame. Is it the kernel (linux kernel 2.6.30rc8 from kernel PPA), is it the mesa drivers or intel driver or whatever that comes from xorg-edgers PPA, or maybe the problem appeared from the compiz upgrade from jaunty- proposed repository, or is it firefox 3.5b4 that I use.

Vitali, that fix causes some problems with transparency.

You can try this patch for xserver, http://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=24296 which is mentioned in the following bug report: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20704, It works for me, although it seems still have file descriptor leakage. -- [Jaunty][UXA]compiz.real memory leak https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/328232 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

As discussed on the forum in this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?s=d0ff5aae247ab70c9a4cd20b123a281et=1071218 I also believe its a bug with uxa acceleration on the intel x.org driver. I come to this conclusion because I see the same problem with KDE4.2 using compositing. It even makes my X server crash on a system with 2.5GB of ram. This started after I switched to uxa acceleration, now switching back to exa will report in a few days. -- [Jaunty][UXA]compiz.real memory leak https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/328232 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
