I am also experiencing very high memory usage with compiz, but unlike most reports I'm not using any kind of system monitor, dashboard or whatever thing. I'm using a normal Gnome session with nothing but a few application icons on my panel. Over the past weekend, the memory usage went up to 2.5GB. And since a reboot yesterday it went up to about 600MB right now.
Attached is a compiz.log with memory shown increasing over night. I wasn't using the computer. I had Firefox, a terminal and IntelliJ Idea open. The log also contains a list of running processes. It's not a big deal for me, having 8GB of RAM in this machine, but it sure is an annoying bug. I'm not sure if I'm using "unity" or "classic", or whatever. I know I disabled that new stuff of Ubuntu and just selected Gnome as session. ** Attachment added: "Compiz memory log and process list" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/720446/+attachment/2251155/+files/compiz2.log -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/720446 Title: memory leak in compiz when using places, dashboard, and exposing launcher icons with multiple quicklists To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-multiload/+bug/720446/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
