Hi all! I reported a bug in VLC earlier today about it causing increasing total RAM consumption:
https://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/17241 However, the strange thing is when it happens, the %MEM usage of the system increases, but I don't see it in htop/top (as root)'s individual processes' RAM consumption. And the memory gets freed after I quit VLC Player. Why? How is it possible? Where does all the memory go? I'm on mageia v6 x86-64 with : shlomif@telaviv1:~$ uname -a Linux telaviv1.shlomifish.org 4.7.0-desktop-2.mga6 #1 SMP Sat Jul 30 21:54:30 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux Is this a bug somewhere? Any insights will be appreciated. Regards, -- Shlomi Fish -- Shlomi Fish http://www.shlomifish.org/ You can never truly appreciate The Gilmore Girls until you've watched it in the original Klingon.
