Hi all,
My F8 box seemed really sluggish this morning, so I checked top. Compiz was using on the order of 1.2 GB resident RAM and another 1GB of swap memory, this after an uptime of around three days. See:
$ ps u - C compiz
USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TTY STAT START TIME COMMAND
colin 2303 8.1 58.9 1008016 1223272 ? RL Nov30 323:22 compiz --sm-client-id default1 glib gconf
It hadn't consumed all the memory of this two gig box, so killing it was easy enough.
This is the second time in recent weeks I have encountered this. Has anyone else seen this behaviour?
Is it worth filing a report of this on bugzilla? It is not something I can reproduce at will; it just seems to kinda happen.
Details:
$ rpm -aq | grep compiz
compiz-gnome-0.6.2-3.fc8
compiz-0.6.2-3.fc8
$ rpm -aq | grep nvidia
kmod-nvidia-100.14.19-18.lvn8
kmod-nvidia-2.6.23.1-49.fc8-100.14.19-18.lvn8
xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-100.14.19-4.lvn8
$ lspci | grep -i nvidia
04:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GeForce 7100 GS (rev a1)
$ uame -r

Thanks.
