Bug 1276186 may be an acute form of this bug. I saw both the high CPU usage and extreme RAM usage (about 1 megabyte/second leak). It happened when I minimized Chrome, but continued long after I killed all the chrome processes. ibus-ui-gtk3 got up to 2+ gigabytes of ram pretty quickly. I'll attach an apport log.
I guess I could figure out how to valgrind the app by disabling ibus in System Settings / Language Support, then following https://code.google.com/p/ibus/wiki/IBusStartUpTroubleShooting, or maybe by looking at the startup hook installed by im-config and modifying it. But since I don't need an input method, I may just live with ibus disabled. ** Attachment added: "apport.ibus.ptzz6wvv.apport" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ibus/+bug/1271839/+attachment/4365915/+files/apport.ibus.ptzz6wvv.apport -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to ibus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1271839 Title: ibus-ui-gtk3 big memory leak Status in ibus package in Ubuntu: Expired Bug description: ubuntu 13.10 64bit 2gb of memory leak Also seen on Ubuntu 14.04 64Bit To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ibus/+bug/1271839/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
