Like, helm is known for using lots of memory, and eww can, too, > under some circumstances, and so can image caching... in my case, it's ivy and emacs-w3m. the first burst i observe is usually at the beginning, so not many of the miriad other packages i use have been active at all. i use exwm, so that's one that's always there for sure, and ivy takes control immediately, but little else seems "needed". regarding images, i use pdf-tools, and it has a heavy memory footprint (opening any PDF increases easily emacs ram consumption in 200Mb, no matter how big the PDF). but those jumps are immediate upon opening the doc. in my case, another source of puzzlement is this "bursty" behaviour. after the firs one, i can be at ~1Gb for a day or two (doing almost everything inside emacs, so all kinds of packages used), and then, without any change in my usage patterns i could tell, a new burst will take my RAM, 10Mbs at a time, up to ~2Gb. and then stop, again without me doing, concisouly, anything differently. jao -- To see ourselves as others see us is a most salutary gift. Hardly less important is the capacity to see others as they see themselves. -Aldous Huxley, novelist (1894-1963)
