[Bug 1685885] [NEW] Extreme RAM and SWAP usage

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Eric Desrochers (slashd):

This has been noticed on several systems of mine, all 16.04.

Landscape Client takes up, over time, an *extreme* amount of system
resources.

On a 1024MB RAM system, within 3 days to a month, Landscape Client and
it's python scripts (possibly cached data?) are consuming massive
quantities of memory - in the realm of 512MB RAM and over 400MB of the
Swap on the system.

This is repeatably shown in other systems of mine as well.  Is there a
memory leak or something in landscape-client that would contribute to
this issue?
