I have the exact same issue as gert7. Tracker-extract fills my entire memory until kernel kills the process, after which tracker-extract gets started again with the same situation after a few seconds. The only way to make the system usable again is to forcibly kill all tracker processes.
While clogging up the memory, tracker-extract also gives some errors to journalctl like this, on two specific .dds files. >Apr 23 17:04:27 apfelgriebs-desktop tracker-extract[3527]: Call to gst_discoverer_discover_uri(file:///[...]/[...].dds) failed: Internal data stream error. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1825963 Title: Abysmal memory leak on tracker-extract To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tracker/+bug/1825963/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
