This leak is actually in wireless-tools, I'll make sure the version in RHEL4 has the required fix... Ok, fix will be built into RHEL4 as: wireless-tools-27-0.pre25.4.EL4 Its already in Rawhide (27-0.pre25.4) and FC3-updates (27-0.pre25.3). |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.3) Gecko/20040924 Description of problem: NetworkManager, when left unattended, will grow to absurd memory utilization. The following is after 5 days of idle: $ top -b -n 1 | grep NetworkManager 2792 root 15 0 454m 130m 3188 S 0.0 52.2 11:29.45 NetworkManager The resident size of this process constitutes over half the physical RAM in the machine. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): NetworkManager-0.3.1-3 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start NetworkManager 2. Walk away 3. Come back after a time and check memory usage Actual Results: RAM usage is absurdly high. Expected Results: RAM usage to be something a bit more sane. Additional info:
