Short update: 48h later, had to kill plasmashell when it ate >20GB. Eeek. Less than 24 hours later.

I'll try and delete all CPU monitors (keeping disk, memory and network monitors) and see if it helps.
*** Bug 426539 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Git commit b06031fd5439715f7396471f8e8555a5e7bd4edf by Arjen Hiemstra. Committed on 06/10/2020 at 09:58. Pushed by ahiemstra into branch 'master'. Delete all child nodes when resetting the segments in line chart node Apparently being owned by the parent does not mean removeChild cleans things up so we have to do that manually.

Please feel free to re-open > the bug if you're still seeing the issue with Frameworks 5.75. 5.75 is already tagged, this won't be included unless you ask David for a respin So it has, thanks for the reminder. I'll send an email. I applied the patch to 5.74 and it seems to have helped but I think plasmashell is still leaking. I've lost about 100 MB in the last 24 hours. Alright, everything seems quite good after several days. Memory usage has come back down and the patch appears to function well. Memory is below 200MB after 3 days. Thanks! Phew! Thanks for checking. Thanks all! |
SUMMARY Just upgrade two of my Fedora KDE boxes to 5.19.x and I'm noticing huge memory leak from plasmashell. I'm putting the blame on the system monitors, as removing them all seems to solve the problem. I literally have to reset plasmashell (kquitapp plsamshell && plasmashell &) as it eats ~30GB of RAM. (Both machine have 32GB RAM). Reverting back to 5.18 solves the problem.
