Bug#966292: mate-panel memory leak
Package: mate-panel
Version: 1.20.5-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
mate-panel has memory leak, every few minutes it eats 1 mb of memory after few days it becoming a monster size of gagabytes.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
Normal usage, I'm using mate netspeed applet, mate sensors applet and system tray. Nothing unusual. Simple tests shows:
axet@m3n:~$ while true; do date; memof $(pidof mate-panel); sleep 300; done

Where memof is my custom script calculating PSS of running process in megabytes.
