Comment 38 for bug 1642068

The latest snapd 2.20 does no longer use cgo, so the risk of memory leaks is greatly reduced this way.

There is still the problem that changes accumulate over time and that can eat quite a bit of memory. The following branch addresses this: https://github.com/snapcore/snapd/pull/2545

With the above branch I get something like this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23728089/ (while running "while true; do sudo snap remove hello; sudo snap install hello; done").
