[Bug 565981] Re: [KMS] gem objects not deallocated

 

Petar,

You clearly implied that I was misinterpreting my results in the first
sentence of comment #37. In comment #59, I acknowledged that your system
appears not to have the same memory leak issue; as I said, your
allocation increases /and/ decreases, unlike my own. I asked for
evidence simply because I was concerned that some people may have
prematurely reported the bug as fixed (thankfully however, it seems that
my issue is a corner-case). I am not interested in an argument, so don't
try to create a mountain out of a molehill.

Regardless, in light of the 1.8 server being uploaded to xorg-edgers
(version
2:1.8.0+git20100422+server-1.8-branch.5455df65-0ubuntu0sarvatt2), I gave
the newest packages another try.

Unfortunately, compiz stilI freezes on my system with the 1.8 server.
Although I'm not sure if it matters, considering that the leak in this
report is related to GLX/OpenGL, I did enable metacity compositing
(which uses XRender), and after 5 hours uptime I can see the "object
bytes" allocation remaining stable at ~43MB. The system is very
responsive, and closing applications has the expected effect of
decreasing the GEM allocation.
