[Bug 725435] Re: notify-osd a memory hog (memory leak?)

 

nh2, thank you for your work. It's much appreciated.

I'm backlogged and thus have only become aware of your contribution now.
Sorry about that.  Have you talked to upstream about your patch?  Looks
like an easy fix after all (I'm sure that finding it was hard work,
thank you for that).

Title:
  notify-osd a memory hog (memory leak?)

Status in notify-osd package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: notify-osd

  Noticed this today on my lucid box in top:
  2647 myaccount  20   0 1196m 595m 3528 S    0 29.7   1:09.68 notify-osd

  I don't think a simple notifcation daemon should suck up more than a
  Gig of memory of which half is real memory.  It's the first time I
  noticed this.  I don't have too much information at this point.

  $ dpkg -l notify-osd*
