Subject: bug#40116: GDM: Memory leak in .gnome-shell-real process
Date: Wed, 18 Mar 2020 09:18:11 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <170ee024512.c9ac6ac476703.6325608537898017895@zoho.com> (raw)
I can't use GNOME anymore because of the problem I explained in the following thread:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-guix/2020-02/msg00206.html
On recent system upgrades, the problem got worse. Before, I could get to the end of the day despite the leak; but now it takes around 3 hours for the .gnome-shell-real process run by the gdm user to eat the remaining RAM.
It seems that the bug is stronger in the GNOME desktop, but I've seen, at least once, .gnome-shell-real using an abnormal amount of RAM while in sway (about 800 MiB).
My current guix:
