Package: gnome-shell
Version: 3.14.1-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
I'm leaving my computer running for long period of times. My desktop
environment is gnome 3. Today, I happened to look at top and noticed
something, let's say, "interesting": gnome-shell sucks memory, big
time:
1834 glandium 20 0 2697136 971848 30048 S 0.3 12.0 69:13.48 gnome-shell
And it happens to suck more memory than iceweasel does:
4513 glandium 20 0 1711572 724704 85732 S 9.6 8.9 113:46.04 iceweasel
My workflow only involves two or three windows: iceweasel (with many tabs),
roxterm (with many tabs), and vlc. No more, no less.
My system is not entirely up-to-date, but last update with unstable
was not so long ago (dpkg.log tells me it was last week).
Mike
