Subject: bug#43389: 28.0.50; Emacs memory leaks using hard disk all time
Date: Mon, 30 Nov 2020 18:17:28 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87pn3usr13.fsf@mail.trevorbentley.com> (raw)

Ok, here is my latest memory log and a matching libmtrace:
https://trevorbentley.com/mtrace3/
This capture is unique in three ways:
1) Compared to my other tests, this one did not run emacs-slack
and did about half of its leaking from X11 focus events, and the
other half drifting upwards during idle. This session has barely
done anything.
2) I added a custom (malloc-trim) command, and called it after
making my standard memory log. At the end of the log, you can
see that after the trim memory usage fell from 4GB to 50MB.
Unfortunately, this malloc_trim() might make the libmtrace trace
harder to make sense of. But, at least in this case, it meant
99% of the memory could be given back to the OS?
3) I ran the built-in emacs profiler. The profiler memory
results are in the log, both in normal and reversed format, with
the largest element expanded. I don't know how to interpret it,
but it looks like maybe a periodic timer started by helm is
responsible for 3+GB of RAM?
Also note that the (garbage-collect) call is timed now. 318
seconds for this one.
