I think I know the reason for the high memory usage, it's the Ubuntu font. Try to change the fonts in gnome-tweaks → Fonts. Change the Interface Text, Document Text and Legacy Window Titles to Sans Regular and Sans Bold, respectively. This is the default sans font.
I didn't try to pinpoint which option exactly affects the shell. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1926598 Title: gnome-shell ram usage To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1926598/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
