kAddressbook 5.6.1 consumes rediculous amounts of memory on my system - it took a minute or so to start and now consumed 5,2 GB RSS, while akonadiserver consumes additional 1,3 GB and the corresponding mysqld process 1,1 GB... PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM ZEIT+ BEFEHL 4232 gunter 20 0 6487468 5,195g 80592 S 0,0 44,7 0:49.83 kaddressbook 3218 gunter 20 0 3854248 1,313g 3428 S 11,3 11,3 0:10.87 akonadiserver 1566 mysql 20 0 3655660 1,115g 7784 S 33,9 9,6 1:01.60 mysqld The system has 12 GB, but an RSS size of this is not common and the system started paging memory to SSD. I only have one local addressbook defined with a three-digit number of entries.
Addendum: After a while the memory consumption "normalized" to 244 MB (still much for such a "small" application, but acceptable): 4232 gunter 20 0 6487468 244268 80592 S 0,0 2,0 0:50.85 kaddressbook
Note: VIRT is still more than 6 GB, but the space does not seem to be actually used, it's also not paged out. Swap space usage at the moment is about 1 GB in total.
