My test was to open the webbrowser with no tab open, open a tap, go to lemonde.fr, navigate through the news and monitor the number of fd open by the browser in /run/shm.
When the browser is launched it starts with 9, jumps to 30 on the first open tab and increases to more than 100 as I was browsing the website. Even if it is not a leak but some files that chromium keeps as a cache, holding so many large files in /run/shm must have a severe impact on memory. For example I did another test and used the browser for for a longer time and the memory usage for oxide-renderer is (in pages): USS: 154389 PSS: 159730.36 RSS: 165679 With 96 files in /run/shm. ** Summary changed: - oxide-renderer leaks fd in /run/shm + oxide-renderer heavily uses /run/shm -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1497924 Title: oxide-renderer heavily uses /run/shm To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1497924/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
