anyone else got a memory leak on LM15 Cinnamon?

Post by phill1978 »

Cinnamon has a big memory leak for me. it climbs 15meg every few seconds and ate 6gb of ram. This was meant to be fixed with the latest update but not its still a proble, :?

anyone else experience this? go into system monitor and look at the ram climb

Yes my cinnamon 1.8.8 is either leaking, slowly, or consuming a lot of resources. I've seen it consume anywhere from 150 to 450 Mbytes. Though if you do a lot of opening and closing applications it will grow faster.
