Description of problem: I left virt-manager monitoring one running machine for about two days and it run up to 1772MB virtual, 504MB RSS. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): virt-manager-0.10.0-0.5.gitde1695b2.fc19.noarch python-2.7.5-1.fc19.x86_64 pygtk2-2.24.0-7.fc19.x86_64 How reproducible: Haven't noticed this before, but I usually don't leave virt-manager running for long. Additional info: (gdb) heap sizes Chunk size Num chunks Allocated size ---------- ---------- -------------- 512 311731 159,606,272 32 4536973 145,183,136 48 1016696 48,801,408 112 188793 21,144,816 262,160 42 11,010,720 96 94381 9,060,576 64 95361 6,103,104 4,194,320 1 4,194,320 12,304 267 3,285,168 3,149,824 1 3,149,824 288 6379 1,837,152 544 2906 1,580,864 1,024 1312 1,343,488 266,240 5 1,331,200 3,088 326 1,006,688 ... I don't know what those 32 and 48 byte chunks are, but there's lots of them. Unfortunately gdb-heap isn't fully working. I'll keep this virt-manager instance around for now, so ping me if I can provide additional info.

Thanks for the offer, it's easily reproducible for me so feel free to kill your virt-manager instance before it engulfs your machine :)
