[Bug 1589605] Re: evolution-calendar-factory uses lots of memory

 

Still happens in 16.04.1 with Gnome 3.18, the evolution-calendar-
factory-subprocess and evolution-source-registry process are the highest
ranked in the system monitor, with 12% and 8% of CPU usage and a memory
usage of around 100MB.

  evolution-calendar-factory uses lots of memory

Bug description:
  As filed under bug #1342123 (under Canonical System Image, i.e. for mobile installs) by several users, including desktop installs, evolution-calendar-factory (previsouly in 14.04) then evolution-calendar-factory-subprocess (in 16.04) run using several hundreds of megabytes of memory (~ 300 Mio in my case).
  This might have to do with having lots of linked calendars (Google Agenda or other). Another user on my system has much fewer Google Agendas than me and her memory usage of evolution-calendar-factory-subprocess is less, but still close to 100 Mio.
  There have been random crashes of the process, mostly directly upon login, always caused by addressing memory out of range.
  There used to be a workaround by invoking the process a second time, which caused it to exit more or less gracefully. This is not the case anymore in 16.04.
  Unfortunately, searching Google leads to the bug #1342123 which concerns "Canonical System Image", and several users have replied even though it does not only concern mobile installs, which is not immediately self-evident when you are not aware what "Canonical System Image" stands for…
