Since i'm affected by this problem too, I'm going to attache the output of that command.
The "ps -C banshee-1 -o rsz=,command=" command gave me no output. I've noticed that, when opening, banshee freezes the system for a while when the log says: [2 Debug 12:25:12.373] ArtworkLookup Run () [2 Debug 12:25:29.968] ArtworkLookup stopped [1 Debug 12:26:50.908] Creating Pango.Layout, configuring Cairo.Context and the memory usage is just reached 170MB. Then it keeps loading until it gets 230MB (or more after I start playing music) I've got an 8.500 files library. ** Attachment added: "bansheedebug" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/banshee/+bug/711843/+attachment/2052732/+files/bansheedebug -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/711843 Title: Banshee uses far too much RAM -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
