Description of problem: Just checked what applications are consuming the most RAM on my machine and goa-daemon is the top on, although I'm not using any gnome online accounts at all. Checking with top PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 1925 sassmann 20 0 2400672 1,570g 1452 S 0,0 10,1 9:30.01 goa-daemon Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-online-accounts-3.22.4-1.fc25.x86_64 Expected results: goa-daemon should ideally consume a few megs of RAM, but not over 1GB. Also is there any way to disable goa-daemon if you don't need it?
Would it be possible for you to let it run under Valgrind for a while and attach the logs?
can try, any special settings you want me to apply?

(In reply to Stefan Assmann from comment #3) Thanks for those logs! > sassmann@w541:~ > valgrind --leak-check=yes /usr/libexec/goa-daemon Next time, it won't hurt to throw in --track-origins=yes with the -debuginfo sub-package installed. I posted a patch on the upstream bug. I expect that it should cut the leak down by quite a bit.

Do you happen to have a Kerberos ticket?

Actually I tried to install all required debuginfo with # debuginfo-install gnome-online-accounts if that doesn't catch all dependencies I'm not sure what package I should install manually. > I posted a patch on the upstream bug.

Yes, indeed.

Got a link to the patch so I can test it and run valgrind again? It's on the upstream GNOME bug linked from this one: https://bug779548.bugzilla-attachments.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=347162 >> Do you happen to have a Kerberos ticket? > > Yes, indeed. Ok. That means you are using gnome-online-accounts to some extent. I was worried that goa-daemon was silently chewing memory even when there were no accounts whatsoever.
You made me curious, what does gnome-online-accounts do when I kinit? Running a version of gnome-online-accounts with your patch applied under valgrind now, let's see what happens.
(In reply to Stefan Assmann from comment #8) > You made me curious, what does gnome-online-accounts do when I kinit? It is primarily meant to act as a GUI counterpart of the krb5-workstation command line utilities. So, if you use it to get a Kerberos ticket, instead of kinit, and choose to save your password, it will try its best to ensure that you always have a ticket. If possible, it will renew the ticket, or it will get a new one. That won't happen if you use kinit to get your ticket. However, goa-daemon will still detect it and show it in the UI so that its world view continues to match that of krb5-workstation's.
