Description Ivan Gyurdiev 2006-03-04 02:19:38 UTC
After 3-4 days of usage the resource monitor applet reports:

Mono-beagled: 
169.3 MiB resident memory
205.6 MiB writable memory
16.9 MiB shared memory

Mono-beagled-helper:
65.2 MiB resident memory
73.4 MiB writable memory
13.5 MiB shared memory

... and this keeps increasing...
I find it highly unusual that my normal gnome desktop uses 700 MB RAM.

=============

Also, occasionally I see 20% cpu usage by beagle, usually at the most
inconvenient time, as others have reported on fedora-list.

Comment 1 Ivan Gyurdiev 2006-03-06 12:19:45 UTC
Hmm, this situation might have been improved recently [ I see lower memory usage
right now ]. I need to do more testing to be sure there is a leak involved...

Leak or not, mono-beagled has completely unreasonable resource requirements,
especially for software I don't use [ I'm sure it's great, but I know exactly
where each and every thing is on my desktop ]. Right now it's using 90% CPU, and
about 180MB resident memory [ 2 daemons + beagleindex ].

I just encountered this apparent memory leak.  After less than a couple of
hours, mono-beagled is using 71.4 % of my 2.0 GB of RAM.  That's 1.4 GB.  This
does not seem to be good behavior to me.  Oh, and I just noticed that my 2.0 GB
of swap is also being heavily used.  Normally, swap is not touched.

Rahul,
While bug 183898 is similar to this one, it does not mention memory usage, only
CPU usage.  Is this really a duplicate?  Should we update 183898 to include the
memory usage problems and just track it all in one bug?
Jonathan

These are duplicating since there are essentially the same problem of a
potential memory leak. Updating the open bug report can help but a duplicate is
always cross referenced to help the relevant developers dig out specific
information to help reproduce issues
