[Bug 890441] Re: nautilus memory leak
Stacktrace about nautilus again?
Additional comments since previous post:
- running a new app ( with wine) add the same errors at opening time, but no more then.
- have looked at an other system with Oneiric i386: it has the same errors logged and again into .gtk-boomarks "Vidéos" is translated "Vid%C3%A9os". So Oneiric is concerned too for the same reasons. Renaning to "Video" and removing .gtk-bookmarks solve the issue. This system was dist-upgraded from Natty (xsession-error was quite empty with Natty)

Title:
nautilus memory leak
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
There are other bug reports with this description, but they are either
3-4 years old, or closed, or invalid, or expired.
I'm not doing anything exotic, but after about an hour or two of using
my system (not even copying or moving files, or thumbnailing, or...)
memory usage in nautilus goes up to 1.4G or so. When I kill this task,
re-launch nautilus, it sits happily on just a few hundred meg... and
then begins to grow again.
It also takes a LONG time to start up, and the system is very
unresponsive meanwhile... like 20 seconds. This may be a useful clue?
I tried to do a valgrind report, but it makes nautilus so slow as to
be unusable -- like 2 minutes to open a folder on the desktop... so I
couldn't exactly "use it normally" to get a good log. Nonetheless,
here's a log I did capture.
I trust that the data captured by ubuntu-bug will have my library
versions, cpu type, RAM info, etc. Please let me know what else I can
provide. Thanks!
