2015-03-08 21:37:55 apjjr summary Too many instances of processes left running in 64 bit version Dupicate processes started after Resume of amd64 bit
2015-03-08 21:42:54 apjjr description $ uname -a Linux ajsc855 3.13.0-46-generic #76-Ubuntu SMP Thu Feb 26 18:52:13 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux $ cat /etc/lsb-release DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu DISTRIB_RELEASE=14.04 DISTRIB_CODENAME=trusty DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS" I typically run Thunderbird, Firefox, a terminal or two, Gthumb, Gimp, Qcad, Gedit, Libreoffice, Inkscape, Document Viewer and occasionally Virtualbox. It seems to me that there are quite a few extra copies of some processes populating memory after running a session for a few days. Namely, dbus-daemon, gvfsd and gconfd-2. The more I use the session, the more of these processes appear. After a while they start using up a significant amount of memory and system response seems to slow down. Logging out and back in did not alleviate the problem. Rebooting did. But, I will have to reboot again in a week or two to free up the memory used by these leftover processes. The example session used to get the following results was probably well over a week in use. Before rebooting: $ ps -ef >prereboot.txt $ grep -i dbus-daemon <prereboot.txt|wc -l 40 $ grep -i gvfsd <prereboot.txt|wc -l 78 $ grep -i gconfd-2 <prereboot.txt|wc -l 37 After rebooting: $ ps -ef >postreboot.txt $ grep -i dbus-daemon <postreboot.txt|wc -l 4 $ grep -i gvfsd <postreboot.txt|wc -l 5 $ grep -i gconfd-2 <postreboot.txt|wc -l 1 $ uname -a Linux ajsc855 3.13.0-46-generic #76-Ubuntu SMP Thu Feb 26 18:52:13 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux $ cat /etc/lsb-release DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu DISTRIB_RELEASE=14.04 DISTRIB_CODENAME=trusty DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS" Toshiba Satellite C855, 4GB RAM, 720GB HD I typically run Thunderbird, Firefox, a terminal or two, Gthumb, Gimp, Qcad, Gedit, Libreoffice, Inkscape, Document Viewer and occasionally Virtualbox.

I just noticed this a couple of weeks ago, so I am guessing a recent update started it. It seems to me that there are quite a few duplicate copies of some processes populating memory after suspending/resuming a session for a few days. Namely, dbus-daemon, gvfsd and gconfd-2.
