*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 98597 *** I dont think, its a duplicate. In 98597 Xs Memory Usage is growing. In this Bug, kdesktop is growing. reopened Confirmed with KDE 3.5 on Slackware 10.2. kdesktop consumes about 400M memory, using 1 minute multiple background, in around 6 hours. "killall kdesktop" reclaims the lost memory immediately. I will post memory data when I collect some. After four hours: PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 28223 frank 16 0 313m 286m 10m S 0.0 28.4 3:42.05 kdesktop Restarted: 32250 frank 15 0 43708 25m 10m S 0.0 2.6 0:04.56 kdesktop Same here with two Gentoo installations. One is KDE 3.4.1 and proprietary ATI driver, the other is 3.5.2 with proprietary nvidia driver. No problems when I set the background to plain color. Havn't tried a single wallpaper yet. As soon as I use multiple wallpapers on any system kdesktop starts eating memory. Normally around 100MB per day. I reported this on bugs.gentoo.org, but they told me this had to be an upstream issue. Regards, Alex!!! I have the same issue, but am not using the multiple (slideshow) backgrounds. Instead I have a lots of different (svg & png) backgrounds on all screens (xinerama dual-head setup), all scaled to fit the screen size. I suspect in my case the memory leaks whenever the resoltion is changed using the xrandr extension, e.g. when a game switches the second monitor off to run fullscreen. KDE version is 3.5.4, QT 3.3.6, xorg-x11 7.0.0, nvidia drivers. /Ernst Is everyone with this problem using SVG wallpapers? If so, it may have been fixed by revision 584936. See also bug 108326. SVN commit 586166 by kling:
Fixed gargantuan memory leak with SVG wallpapers.
Turns out KSVGIconEngine::image() returns a `new QImage'.
