Date: Wed, 1 Feb 2023 23:36:42 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAJcAo8sf1Ud2ow4iUmNySt+twfFR3tc=FRNmpbBeaNedSHYJyQ@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
my computer is overwhelmed frequenty. sometimes the biggest memory
user is emacs.
ps -eo pid,\%mem,size,vsize,rss,resident,cmd --sort=size -> 5234 55.2
3226844 3549680 3193108 - emacs --maximize
i could run the profiler for a while to find functions, but is htere
anything ht will show me what modes, buffers, etc. are using memory?
for example, undo-tree, or diff-mode, or something like that? also,
if i kill a buffer and gc, will it reduce memory?
