Comment 11 for bug 1657494

As a person that leaves their PC running for days and doesn't turn it off, I've been noticing this issue for years, it's very annoying.

Plank simply starts using more resources and slowing down over time, it reaches the point that you can literally see it rendering the little requester boxes above each icon.

If I close Plank and start it again everything is fine and it performs as expected. I hope for a resolution to this issue with every update, but nothing ever changes. Leave the PC running for more than two days and I have no doubt the issue will be observed.

Currently running Ubuntu Mate 16.04 LTS.
