2011-05-27 06:20:33 Deejay_TNT description Binary package hint: appmenu-gtk When leaving a computer on overnight (or, to make it even worse, for several nights) there's a noticeable decrease in desktop responsivness (the best way to describe it is: grab a window, like a terminal window, and move it around - it really continiously stops moving for a fraction of a second or so). Also, when looking in system monitor (during those slowdowns) - there's a high enough memory consumption for nautilus. Ways to reproduce: leave computer on, work on it with everyday tasks. In a day, desktop responsiveness will be much lower. In a few days - desktop will be almost unusable. Memory footprint for nautilus will rise. Ways to stop: sudo service gdm restart helps. WAY TO FIX: sudo aptitude remove appmenu-gtk I fixed it permanently by uninstalling appmenu-gtk, as described here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1557451 http://www.webupd8.org/2010/07/nautilus-memory-leak-fix-ubuntu-1004.html After uninstalling appmenu-gtk - nautilus no longer leaks, desktop is highly responsive and doesn't slow down over time. Couldn't find an appropriate bug report, so filing a bug. This issue is really bothering me.

Also, when looking in system monitor (during those slowdowns) - there's a high enough memory consumption for nautilus (over 900 Megabytes is what I noticed). Ways to reproduce: leave computer on, work on it with everyday tasks. In a day, desktop responsiveness will be much lower. In a few days - desktop will be almost unusable.

UPDATE: not sure that desktop responsiveness correlates with nautilus memory footprint, might as well be two separate bugs. I'm more bothered with desktop responsiveness.
