Thanks for the bug report.
Since we find a large number of bugs are caused by extensions the first
thing to check is whether your installed extensions are the problem:
'appfolders-mana...@maestroschan.fr'
'drop-down-termi...@gs-extensions.zzrough.org'
'files-menu'
'gsmem...@korc.github.io'
'remove-dropdown-arr...@mpdeimos.com'
'system-moni...@paradoxxx.zero.gmail.com'
'openweather-extens...@jenslody.de'
'multi-monitors-add-on@spin83'
'cpufreq@konkor'
'cpuf...@nodefourtytwo.net'
Please uninstall ALL of them, don't just disable them since that's not
enough to avoid their influence. Then log out and in again and tell us
if the bug persists.

Title:
memory usage is growing over time
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Many times after logging in gnome-shell uses 600-800kB of memory, and
also slows down quite a bit (e.g., 20-30 seconds waiting for login).
Only after multiple resets (Alt+F2 r) drops the memory usage below
200kB. I use my computer mainly for work, and the above phenomenon is
quite disturbing. After a couple of hours of work memory usage is
growing over 400kB again, and sometimes the reset (Alt+F2 r) doesn't
help either. My system is Ubuntu 18.04.3 Gnome 3.28.2, but the newest
Ubuntu also behaves similarly. This is an old issue, it was present in
18.04, 18.10, 19.04 and now in 19.10. I use three computers, and all
of them suffer with this problem. Anyone can check this with the
"gnome-shell memory monitor" gnome-shell extension.
