Comment 5 for bug 1926598

Thanks for the bug report. There are not currently any known leaks in gnome-shell so most likely this is something unique to your machine.

The first unusual thing I notice here is a lot of error messages about:

gnome-shell[52032]: Error getting desktop unix mode: Gio.IOErrorEnum: Error when getting information for file “/home/damir/.wakatime.db-journal”: No such file or directory

so please try uninstalling whatever software is related to WakaTime.

If the problem continues happening then please:

1. Ensure you do not have any extensions installed in ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions

2. Record the memory usage of gnome-shell using the 'ps auxw' command so that we can see exactly what it is. And attach the results here.
