Please tell me which log (s) you require. Memory Usage (after systemd-oomd removed_ shown in attached Task manager screenshot. Memory usage (before systemd-oomd removed) I don't have and I don't really want to reinstall systemd-oomd just to show the memory usage increasing. Also, memory usage before system-oomd is I hope covered in: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1404888/how-do-i-disable-the-systemd-oom-process-killer-in-ubuntu-22-04 There are a number of other AskUbuntu reports for system-oomd.Most seem to be concerned with Firefox.

I'm running Noble (upgraded from 2022 LTS) on a 16GB Ryzen box, I found a AskUbuntu report which stated that the problem is the system-oomd package, Initially someone suggested stopping the oomd service but that eventually failed top work and the current solution is to remove the system-oomd package. I've done that and the memory glitch has gone away so the RAM usage is staying constant at 7GB. IMO this is a serious errorand will put off Ubuntu newbies.
