After some very thorough analysis, I've concluded that zeitgeist is not at blame here.
If my understanding of the kernel slab allocator is correct, free() doesn't actually free the memory from a program's space until the kernel decides it needs reclaimed. As such, zeitgeist-daemon is not at fault and probably not actually using all that memory. ** Attachment added: "zeitgeist research.ods" https://bugs.launchpad.net/zeitgeist/+bug/624310/+attachment/2916666/+files/zeitgeist%20research.ods -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/624310 Title: Large requests increase memory usage considerably To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/zeitgeist/+bug/624310/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
