Description

Memory usage increased to 12GB and workspace freeze.

How to reproduce

Not sure how to reproduce this, but the freeze is observed after using firefox for some while.

Crash reports, logs, images, videos

No response

ram or vram? Anyways if this is not reproducible it might be impossible to track down. Also see #6885

[jilen]

It is 100% reproducible on my pc. Slowly increasing memory usage observed here.

is it reproducible on the default config? I can't seem to repro and you seem to be the only one affected.

Is this a regression? It seems easily bisectable if it is, considering you get such a sharp memory increase within minutes.

[jilen]

@vaxerski I might find the cause of the huge memory usage. It is mainly due to emacs child-frame. Tons of child-frames will be open for common use case (such as auto-completion). Seems hyprland will not release resource caused by this type of windows(child-frame).

[vaxerski]

can you test latest git?

Also, is emacs running in native wayland? If so, can you pass a WAYLAND_DEBUG=1 log?

[jilen]

@vaxerski Yes I am on the latest git. And emacs is run in native wayland. emacs-wayland.log

[vaxerski]

this is the same as #6885 and not a hl bug

[idlip]

Hi!

I also faced this issue recently, did try with emacs -Q (no config), then too it persists.

I was not sure if its hyprland or emacs issue. I used emacs-overlay (latest 31.0.50), nixos with hyprland from unstable.

Finally someone pointed it out, and was addressed.

For any debugging, hope I can add up or be a help!

Also, for emacs, i was killing the daemon and restarting, in this hassle I discovered activities.el git, which can save sessions and window config using bookmark feature in emacs.

Thank you vaxry, for always being quick and working on this!

[vaxerski]

this should be reported to emacs (possibly gtk) as a leak

[jilen]

Hm, emacs on xwayland works just fine.

[jilen]

There's a fix on https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/merge_requests/7206/diffs I tried that patch, no leaks any more.

[vaxerski]

told ya

[jilen]

Made an aur build script with that patch, https://github.com/jilen/gtk-fixed In case of someone may need it.

[idlip]

Yay! The fix is merged!

Thank you jilen for investigating and nudging for the push in gitlab!

[thyeun]

emacs-wayland 29.4-3 (from arch repos) still having huge memory usage

And when launching emacs, will feel laggy.
