Just a quick note on the subject: this is a quick summary of the memory used by some of the daemons that are currently spawned every time a user logs in.
Obviously you can't just sum up the VmRSS or VmSize fields, but, anyway, most of these kilobytes are just plain wasted in many configurations. When thinking about this issue, also the number of wake-ups forced by these daemons and the time that it takes to launch them when the user logs it should be taken into account. /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfs-gphoto2-volume-monitor VmPeak: 7128 kB VmSize: 7124 kB VmLck: 0 kB VmHWM: 2364 kB VmRSS: 2300 kB VmData: 592 kB VmStk: 84 kB VmExe: 48 kB VmLib: 4676 kB VmPTE: 36 kB /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfs-afc-volume-monitor VmPeak: 16948 kB VmSize: 16948 kB VmLck: 0 kB VmHWM: 2324 kB VmRSS: 2272 kB VmData: 8408 kB VmStk: 84 kB VmExe: 40 kB VmLib: 6692 kB VmPTE: 40 kB /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfsd-burn --spawner :1.6 /org/gtk/gvfs/exec_spaw/1 VmPeak: 6436 kB VmSize: 6376 kB VmLck: 0 kB VmHWM: 2352 kB VmRSS: 1952 kB VmData: 204 kB VmStk: 84 kB VmExe: 116 kB VmLib: 4316 kB VmPTE: 36 kB /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfsd-network --spawner :1.6 /org/gtk/gvfs/exec_spaw/2 VmPeak: 15556 kB VmSize: 15556 kB VmLck: 0 kB VmHWM: 3360 kB VmRSS: 3360 kB VmData: 8532 kB VmStk: 84 kB VmExe: 116 kB VmLib: 5092 kB VmPTE: 28 kB /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfsd-smb-browse --spawner :1.6 /org/gtk/gvfs/exec_spaw/3 Groups: 4 20 24 46 105 119 122 1000 VmPeak: 24252 kB VmSize: 24252 kB VmLck: 0 kB VmHWM: 4976 kB VmRSS: 4972 kB VmData: 9360 kB VmStk: 84 kB VmExe: 124 kB VmLib: 12372 kB VmPTE: 36 kB /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfsd-dnssd --spawner :1.6 /org/gtk/gvfs/exec_spaw/4 VmPeak: 6604 kB VmSize: 6544 kB VmLck: 0 kB VmHWM: 2592 kB VmRSS: 2592 kB VmData: 208 kB VmStk: 84 kB VmExe: 116 kB VmLib: 4444 kB VmPTE: 36 kB -- gvfs-backends should be split in multiple sub-packages https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/595934 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gvfs in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
