Public bug reported: Ubuntu 14.10 with GNOME3 PPA.
I launch Web, GNOME's default browser and I log in into my LinkedIn profile. Then, from the top bar I place my pointer over the "Connections" menu so it is expanded, once expanded, I click on the "See all" link: https://www.linkedin.com/people/pymk/hub?ref=global-nav&trk=nav_utilities_invites_header Upon doing so, the browser freezes and I notice the HD of my computer starting to work hard. After checking with "top" the WebKitWebProcess is growing its used memory by the Gbs!!! and it doesn't seem to stop. This may not be a problem in WKGTK+ but the graphics driver since, after repeating the process with a GDB attached to the WebKitWebProcess, GDB states that the point in which it exits when manually killing the process is: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/i965_dri.so However, I cannot reproduce with Chromium, FF (of course, the code path is completely different). ** Affects: mesa (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Package changed: nautilus-sendto (Ubuntu) => mesa (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus-sendto in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1494402 Title: WebKitWebProcess WebKitGtk+ 2.4.8 uses memory without end when visiting some LinkedIn URL To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mesa/+bug/1494402/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
