I have this problem as well. I'm running Chromium on Ubuntu 16.04 and the "browser" process increases memory usage over time, regardless of activity or other tabs memory usage.
It is not as grave as 13GB in 4 hours, but I'm running only a couple of tabs with no extensions and still see the browser processes bloating memory. Generally, after 24h of execution it takes over 1GB of memory and keeps increasing, even if killing all the tabs and extensions. My current session has only two tabs active, each with around ~100MB and no extensions. This is used for work, so there is no facebook or youtube browsing, no flash. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1751137 Title: Severe memory leak: 13 GB RAM in 3-4 hours To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1751137/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
