Package: firefox-3.6.13-1.fc13 Architecture: i686 OS Release: Fedora release 13 (Goddard) How to reproduce ----- 1. Operate firefox 2. After four to eight hours of surfing session with ~20 tabs open 3. Gets slow, locks up, fails to redraw, crashes 4. Rinse, repeat Comment ----- There's some sort of time-and-distance memory leak going on here. It's not a specific thing that I'm doing, but after a while FF gets slower & slower. Then it won't redraw. If one is impatient, one kills it and restarts. Else you let it sit, the swapper runs hard. Then it dies. There's 4GB RAM on this machine, but process is in the 1.2-1.6GB range when it keels over. In contrast, a "fresh" FF that has just fired up with 46 tabs weighs only 0.75GB. I understand that FF was optimized for one or two tabs and this is abusive. But ... I'm using the tabs as reminders of work that needs to happen. top - 07:34:27 up 96 days, 12:00, 16 users, load average: 3.08, 5.23, 6.40 Tasks: 396 total, 3 running, 390 sleeping, 0 stopped, 3 zombie Cpu(s): 12.4%us, 2.9%sy, 0.1%ni, 81.4%id, 3.0%wa, 0.0%hi, 0.2%si, 0.0%st Mem: 4112972k total, 3905168k used, 207804k free, 40764k buffers Swap: 8290300k total, 4617908k used, 3672392k free, 879640k cached PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 3576 wbaker 20 0 729m 338m 28m S 99.4 8.4 2:33.09 firefox 28441 wbaker 20 0 317m 118m 3560 S 31.2 2.9 2677:11 npviewer.bin This message is a reminder that Fedora 13 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 13. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '13'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 13's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 13 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fedora 13 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2011-06-25. Fedora 13 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
