[Bug 726952] Re: Xorg HUGE memory leak with firefox and large fonts
Hey valerio,
Thanks for your interest in Ubuntu.
Thanks for testing maverick during its development period.
Unfortunately it looks like this bug report didn't get attention during
the maverick development period. But I see there's not been more
comments on the bug since the release, which makes me wonder if this is
still an issue for you?
If you've not seen this issue since maverick's release yourself, it may
have been solved by kernel or X or other updates that occurred late in
the release; if so, would you mind please closing the bug for us? Go to
the URL mentioned in this bug report, click the yellow icon(s) in the
status column and set to 'Fix Released'.
If you no longer have the hardware needed to reproduce the problem, or
otherwise feel the bug no longer needs tracked in Launchpad, you can set
the status to 'Invalid'.
If you are the original reporter and still have this issue, just reply
to this email saying so. (Or set the bug status to Confirmed.) If you
are able to re-test this against 11.04 Natty Narwhal (our current
development focus) and find the issue still affects Natty, please also
run 'apport-collect <bug-number>' while running natty, which will add
fresh logs and debug data, and flag it for the Ubuntu-X development team
to look at.
** Description changed:
Binary package hint: xorg
Not sure if this is to be considered a Firefox or X bug. If I open a
html file with some big font in it, like the one attached, as I start
scrolling up-down and left-right around the page the X process start
eating memory so fast that in few seconds the kernel starts OOM killing,
or it pages so violently it takes ages to kill X even using Alt -SysRq
-k. I've 3Gb of physical memory and gets filled in a matter of seconds.
If you manage to kill firefox in time X does not release the memory.
I consider this a really serious problem, and do not know whether is an
X or firefox problem. With chrome everything is ok.
