            Bug ID: 373952
           Summary: kwin_x11 too high memory usage
           Product: kwin
           Version: 5.8.3
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED

kwin support information

I just switched from KDE4 kwin to plasma5/kwin5 and see now that kwin_x11 uses
more than 180MB of memory (measured with KDE's system monitor).
I'm pretty sure that I have never seen this high memory usage in kwin when
using KDE4.
Is this expected ?
Currently I have 10 desktops, about 15 windows in sum open.
kwin_x11 is currently the process which uses the most memory on the whole
system. Even plasmashell uses "just" 152MB
>From the "detailed memory usage" window:
----------
The process kwin_x11 (with pid 27142) is using approximately 223.9 MB of
memory.
It is using 188.8 MB privately, 32.1 MB for pixmaps, and a further 27.0 MB that
is, or could be, shared with other programs.
----------

Quickly testing a similar situation on a different PC with openSuse 13.2/kwin4,
I see a mem usage of about 60MB only

The kwin support information is attached
