In #ayatana [1] It was suggested that indicator-multiload might be related, and requested that I see if the problem still arises. there was previously a bug in this area that is marked fix-released (bug 779717).
So, I've disabled indicator-multiload, logged out, and logged back in. Upon login, top reports the following usage for unity-2d-panel: PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 5382 smoser 20 0 553m 49m 27m S 0 1.3 0:01.57 unity-2d-launch 5744 smoser 20 0 280m 48m 11m S 0 1.2 0:02.07 ubuntuone-syncd 5381 smoser 20 0 441m 30m 20m S 2 0.8 0:00.73 unity-2d-panel $ cat /proc/$(pidof unity-2d-panel)/statm 113222 8303 5342 10 0 22611 0 I'll try to remember to report back in 4 hours or so and see if this has changed. -- [1] http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2012/01/19/%23ayatana.html#t13:45 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/905854 Title: memory leak in unity-2d-panel To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity-2d/+bug/905854/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
