[Bug 569818] Re: massive memory leak, evolution-data-server

 

Like I said over on bug 648618, I quite using evolution because of this.
Unfortunately you can't apt-get purge evolution* if you want a clock on
your desktop. So I wrote an app indicator so I could completely remove
the leaky evolution stuff from my system:

  massive memory leak, evolution-data-server

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: evolution-data-server

  
  Problem description:
  The evolution-data-server leaks 10's of megs of RAM over a 24 hour period in at least the Google calendar service. I originally reported this to bugzilla.gnome.org but I think this needs more urgent attention. The System Monitor is what initially showed me where my RAM was going.

  The bug at bugzilla.gnome.org has a valgrind trace I just attached a
  few minutes ago:

  https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=615371

  This is the command I used to run valgrind:
  valgrind -v --tool=memcheck --leak-check=full --num-callers=40 --log-file=valoffline.log /usr/lib/evolution/evolution-data-server-2.28 --oaf-activate-iid=OAFIID:GNOME_Evolution_DataServer_InterfaceCheck --oaf-ior-fd=30

  That does not find any information.
