Description Ruedi Hofer 2017-10-29 07:58:23 UTC
Dear all, 
suffering from a huge memory leak when using "media frame widget", I'm coming from Bug 382262 and confirm that memory leak still present. 16G Ram are eaten up in less than 2 hours. Restarting plasmashell releases the memory, after "media frame widget" had been closed. I mark it 'crash' because after the upgrade to kubuntu artful, the computer crashes after 2 hours.

I open a new Bug, since no other bug matches. Bug 382262 is already closed, Bug 381000 is different topic.

kubuntu Artful ppa backports landing
Plasma 5.11.2
KDE Frameworks 5.39.0
Qt 5.9.1
Kernel 4.13.0-16
OS 64bit.
Comment 1 Christoph Feck 2017-11-15 19:38:07 UTC
Please test with Qt 5.9.2 or newer.

Comment 2 Ruedi Hofer 2017-11-25 09:12:42 UTC
Is there a ppa for Qt 5.9.2 and artful which you recommend?
Comment 3 Ruedi Hofer 2018-05-06 14:13:32 UTC
The error/problem is still present with bionic and Qt 5.9.5. After 2 hours 10G of ram are eaten up and the computer stalls.
(might it be that files image files are loaded, but never closed/unloaded)
Please have a look into that issue.
Comment 4 Christoph Feck 2018-05-06 15:21:33 UTC
As far as I know, the fix first landed in Qt 5.11.
Comment 5 Mirek Mieszczak 2018-06-26 19:13:30 UTC
I suffer also from this bug, on Gentoo KDE Frameworks.
Comment 6 Nate Graham 2020-01-12 21:35:20 UTC
Can anyone reproduce this while using Qt 5.11 or later?

I personally cannot observe problems associated with this bug anymore. 
So in my opinion it can be closed.
Comment 10 Gerhard 2020-09-24 21:22:48 UTC
The bug is still present. I tried it on Plasma 5.19.5,KF 5.73.0 on openSUSE Tumbleweed

If you leave the change interval to 10 sec and show a slide show with hundrets of images (jpeg, 3 to 5 MB each), my system memory of 32 GB is eaten up within half a day. You can easily see with KInfocenter / Memory tab how each new image eats up more and more memory.
Comment 11 Daniel Mader 2021-01-21 08:36:00 UTC
I can confirm this bug is still present. It reappeared sometime in 2020 for openSUSE Leap and Tumbleweed packages, at least. Happens on all our systems, Intel and AMD.

Operating System: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20210119
KDE Plasma Version: 5.20.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.78.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2
Kernel Version: 5.10.7-1-default
OS Type: 64-bit
