Memory leak in X process after starting Slider #4

Closed wlhlm closed 11 years ago

wlhlm commented 11 years ago

When starting slider in non-fullscreen mode a huge memory leak appears in the xorg process.

Here is a log, where you can see the output of while sleep 1; do ps uh -p $(pgrep -f X); done. Memory usage grows from 45MB to 2GB and falls a little bit to 1.5GB after quitting. slider is at around 12MB.

Notable is also the CPU usage:

X:         45%
slider:    70%

System: Ubuntu 12.10 amd64 Xorg: 1.13.0

wlhlm, as slider has been completely recoded from scratch, I doubt this error will have been replicated, particularly since the window management has changed completely.

I'll thus close this issue, but please reopen a new issue if any similar problem arises in the new version.
