Lxtask RSS column RAM usage is higher than in reality by 20% to 40%. The top box to the right gives the correct total RAM (and same as the 'free -m' command). So 17 MB might only be 7-8 MB.
The real individual RAM usage for a task can be found by killing it or disabling it so that it does not autostart. Also, keep in mind that the bugs refers to RAM usage on INSTALLED systems. I agree with Julien that RAM usage should not have changed much (Additional Drivers dropped and 2 at-spi added) in 12.10. I did enable all processes in View as he suggested. I can see that Lightdm is there twice (31 MB + 3 MB) and Getty is there six times (less than 1 MB each), but my knowledge of what these things do is limited. Sorry I cannot help further. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1069081 Title: Lubuntu 12.10 uses 30% more RAM than 12.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lubuntu-meta/+bug/1069081/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
