[Bug 1324728] Re: ibus-daemon high memory usage

 

I'm seeing ibus use over 600MB after just a couple of months of uptime:

Title:
  ibus-daemon high memory usage

Status in ibus package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After surfing the web in firefox for a while, I observed that ibus-
  daemon was occupying a surprisingly large amount of memory (smem
  reports its unique set size [USS] as 107 MiB). This is much higher
  than the usage observed shortly after login (about 1.3 MiB USS).

  Not sure yet if there's anything in particular needed to trigger this.
