lissyxFTR gnome-shell seems to be leaking memory over time on 22.0406:37
lissyx3.7% reported in htop, where it was much less at start of the session06:37
lissyxa few week ago it was hittinng 5.5%, making gnome-shell unusable (high latencies)06:38
lissyx3.7% ~= 1.2GiB06:38
lissyx1.1% of memory at session start06:41
dufluHi didrocks and lissyx06:50
duflulissyx,  if your leak is not already covered by one of these: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bugs?field.tag=gnome-shell-leak then please open a new bug (but not before eliminating all thirdparty extensions)06:51
lissyxI only have "Lock keys" enabled06:51
dufluPlease delete that, then verify the leak happens, then log a new bug06:52
lissyxhttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/198316106:53
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1983161 in gnome-shell (Ubuntu) "gnome-shell memory leak" [Undecided, Incomplete]06:53
lissyxI have the same appindicator stuff06:53
lissyxon solaar though06:53
dufluAh please don't use any Incomplete bugs -- they're almost certainly all bogus06:54
duflu(caused by extensions usually)06:55
lissyxwell the others dont really match ...06:56
dufluNo problem. Please delete all extensions, log in again and then when the leak happens log a new bug (ubuntu-bug gnome-shell)06:57
duflu lissyx, I guess my first question should be: are you using Intel 4th gen or older?06:58

dufluHi seb128 07:04
seb128hey duflu, how are you?07:10
dufluseb128, another weather change another sinus headache. Not just me but other people too... How are you?07:11
seb128duflu, I'm alright thanks!07:18
seb128:-( for the weather changes and sinus headache07:19
oSoMoNgood morning desktoppers07:20
dufluHi oSoMoN 07:22
oSoMoNhey duflu07:23
lissyxduflu, no07:24
lissyxduflu, I disabled all extensions except Lock Keys weeks ago, and restarted the session three times since07:24
duflulissyx, the next question is: are you using the screenshot feature? It still leaks memory07:25
lissyxAMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5850U is my GPU07:25
lissyxI did take a few screenshots07:25
lissyxbut nothing that would explain growing from 1.5% to 4% of memory?07:25
dufluYeah that leaks reliably, although much less since the latest update07:25
lissyx4% is 1.28GiB07:25
dufluYeah repeated screenshots can reach that without too much effort07:26
dufluStill, that may not be the main cause here07:26
lissyxhonestly, with out without extensions, I have always suffered some leaks on gnome-shell for months ... if not years07:27
lissyxcommute time07:28
duflulissyx, the appindicators theory hasn't been verified yet. It would be helpful if you could disable that extension and see if the leaks stop07:31
* lool o/08:56
dufluHi lool 09:00
loolHey duflu!09:00
looljbicha, seb128: Heya! You remember these GStreamer SRUs we worked on in Frankfurt? I think I just got a message about one of them – "[focal/gstreamer1.0] Package Phasing Stopped"09:01
loolI hadn't ever gotten this notice, it's pretty cool! but looking at the specifics I couldn't quite figure where was the bump in errors09:02
loolLooking at https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/phased-updates.html it seems that gstreamer1.0 is halted09:03
loolI wonder if this package is going to collect all crashes with weird/out of Ubuntu plugins that might trigger some gst-inspect crashes09:03
loolAt least, plugin scanning crashes seem to be the top crashers in https://errors.ubuntu.com/?release=Ubuntu%2020.04&package=gstreamer1.0&period=week&version=1.16.3-0ubuntu109:04
seb128lool, hey. Those metrics are not really reliable, we are getting low number of reports so it's probably a false positive or in the noise margin. We could contact the SRU asking to ignore it or just wait, those cases often autoresolve,09:06
loolSo give it a few days? I can do that09:06
seb128yes09:09
loolleaving the frying pan soak in the kitchen sink? CAN DO!09:38
jbichalissyx: there is supposed to be a small memleak fix in gjs 1.72.1 but it hasn't made it into jammy yet10:56
jbichagood morning10:56
nteodosiogood morning jbicha11:00
oSoMoNgood morning jbicha & nteodosio 11:28
lissyxjbicha, is there some tooling that could be used to track that?11:53
jbichalissyx: I don't understand your question11:59
lissyxjbicha, gjs is built from v8 right, is it possible to connect it to a debugger/profiler and maybe get hints on what could be leaking ?12:05
jbichagjs uses the SpiderMonkey JavaScript engine from Firefox ESR (packaged as mozjs*)12:06
lissyxoh12:06
lissyxeven better ...12:07
jbichayes, there is some way to debug & profile but that's outside my expertise12:07
lissyxfortunately, I have paris-based colleagues working explicitely on the js engine :)12:07
jbichayou could also talk to gnome-shell upstream to ask what they use12:08
lissyxI guess my past experience makes me a bit relunctant to interact with gnome-shell upstream12:09
lissyxoSoMoN, \o/ https://github.com/canonical/firefox-snap/runs/7663824243?check_suite_focus=true#step:5:3393713:19
oSoMoNlissyx, yes, that was successful for two nightly builds already :)13:21
lissyxand some beta13:21
lissyxhttps://launchpad.net/~mozilla-snaps/firefox/+snap/firefox-snap-beta13:21
oSoMoNand I can view the symbols uploaded with my token, the web interface is neat13:21
lissyxbut those dont produce debug symbols?13:21
oSoMoNnot yet13:22
lissyxI guess you still need to merge the changes to beta/stable ?13:22
oSoMoNyes13:22
oSoMoNnot merged yet13:22
lissyxhave you issued some gnome-sdk rebuild ?13:22
lissyxit's the last bit where we might have a bug on our side to pull from launchpad13:22
lissyx(based on how builds are discovered)13:22
lissyxjbicha, I'm being told perf is the best way13:28
