Description Sander Lepik 2015-03-07 13:28:06 CET 
Description of problem:
mgaapplet for some reason leaks memory and it leaks a lot.. It was running 1-2 minutes and in that time it reached 328MB then it stopped growing. The first check for updates raised it to 333MB and clicking on the icon added another 6MB (339MB now)


How reproducible:
Not sure if it does it every time but I was able to reproduce it currently on my system.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start mgaapplet with this command: valgrind --leak-check=full --show-leak-kinds=all --log-file="mgaapplet.log" mgaapplet

I'll attach the log from valgrind.

Hi Nic! Why are you so terse? What do you want from the reporters of this bug?
Comment 5 Thierry Vignaud 2016-01-04 11:41:37 CET 
I fail to reproduce this bug
Comment 6 Nic Baxter 2016-01-04 11:47:41 CET 
OK I will try to be more loquacious. I don't mean to be unfriendly, I'm just feeling my way with this stuff and don't want to bother people with lots of words. 


Hi Sander,
Is this still an issue? Please let us know.

Nic

I don't have time to debug it some more And the current memory usage seems OK after one week uptime. So let's close it for now.
