Public bug reported: Binary package hint: compiz
Running gutsy [uptodate as of saturday, oct 6, 2007] with compiz enabled & custom effects, using non-free nvidia driver, compiz's memory use slowly climbs while performance degrades; after ~ 36 hours it had risen to 43% of my 1 Gi of RAM (according to top). Workaround is to issue metacity --replace & and then compiz --replace &; i guess the first step can probably be left out but i didn't testthat just now. in other cases the slowdown was so bad that the system was for all intents and purposes frozen, and gdm had to be restarted remotely (and veeeerrrry slowly). anything i can do to help track down the source of the bug. ** Affects: compiz (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- memory leak in compiz w/ nvidia [gutsy] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/151168 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
