Xorg memory usage.

Hi there.
I am new to linux and have just recently performed another clean install of arch linux onto my system. I was just wanting find out why after running my system for about 4 hours my xorg server memory usage increased from about 30MB to 1.5GB? I dont think this is normal behaviour.
My system is
Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600
4GB DDR2 1067Mhz
Nvidida Gefore 8800GTX
running
Archlinux 64-bit
with xorg-server 1.7.3.902-1
and KDEmod4
btw, my system is entirely up to date. If needed I will move my post to the KDEmod forums, but im unsure of the likeliness that kdemod is the cause. Thanks in advance.

There is a known memory leak in the ATI R600 driver.
It only happens with specific 3D commands.

Dunno about the Nvidia one.
That would explain mine, I use the xf86-video-ati from the repos and use some compositing effects.
So do I but even after deactivating compositing the problem still seems to be there.

  • High RAM memory usage compared to other systems

    I'm suffering with memory usage problems, only in open 2 tabs of facebook(it's only for example, any 'heavy' page freeze also) in firefox*(for example also, but this occur in chromium also) freeze computer.
    I've 1GB of memory, it isn't big but also isn't very little.
    I'm using XFCE with compiz (yes, compiz, since use a very lightweight openbox-based session doesn't help, then compiz...) when system start (after login) system is consuming 130MB approximately of RAM.
    after 1 hour if close all open apps and see memory usage again consume is something about 350MB, "only solution" is reboot.
    all applications(htop,free -m,xfce's system monitor...) that I've tried to monitor memory usage show above scenario, except the 'ps_mem' script in AUR.
    in the 'ps_mem' script the result is following (with opera browser open, less memory offensive browser but I really prefer firefox):

    =================================
    as you can see in 'ps_mem' memory usage isn't nothing absurdly it's ok.
    another example, this problem stop me make certain things, for example is impossible browsing in web while programming in eclipse, this is very uncomfortable.
    other thing, this not occur in Windows XP, I can open more than 10 tabs in firefox, and eclipse open, etc...
    any needing information, tell-me!
    firefox*: with memory cache turned off in about:config

    hotvic, could you please change the title to something more descriptive? 'memory problems' sounds like you have problems e.g. remembering / recalling things, which is not an Arch issue ;P

    I've had some limiting performance with browsers lately (Firefox and Chromium).  I found it had a considerable cache size utilizing lots of fragmented space on my home directory. I cleared the cache and have since set a limit to the cache size of 30 MB for Firefox.  Between multiple users across multiple browser sessions, I had at least 2 GB of cache data on my 10 GB home partition!  So far (1 day), this has been helpful.  Perhaps this could help you also?

    OP is talking about RAM, not HDD space.

  • Sudden high memory usage, can't find cause

    I did a big update yesterday, and today I've started to notice very high memory usage. I wasn't keeping track before so I can't say how much it increased, but I've never had problems before, and the slowness and lack of responsiveness have been noticeable, though I haven't ruled out other possible causes for that. Here's the output of 'free -m':
    total used free shared buffers cached
    Mem: 7971 7826 144 0 1 149
    -/+ buffers/cache: 7674 296
    Swap: 9215 458 8757
    It wasn't as bad as that right after startup, though usage still seemed suspiciously high. What makes this whole thing a mystery to me is that none of my running processes seem to be using that much memory!  Here's the output of 'top -b -n 1':

    I wouldn't expect the '%MEM's to add up to exactly the real usage, but this isn't even close! So, what could be using up all of my memory? I have /tmp mounted to ram, but that's only a few megabytes. I really have no idea where to go from here.
    The relevant portion of my pacman log is below, since I don't know how to get just a compact list of the updated packages. Most notably, the kernel was upgrades, from 3.9.9-1 to 3.10.3-1.

    Okay, so it turns out that this was caused by the Catalyst bug described in this post. Reverting to the 13.6 version solved the problem. Lesson learned: if there's a ton of memory being used that isn't owned by a running process, start looking for bug reports involving drivers. Especially drivers known for being, well, pretty bad. Was there any method I could have used that would have told me that Catalyst was using all my ram, or is kernel-space memory usage pretty much a black box?

  • How to get less memory usage and cpu usage in an old pc with arch?

    hi, i installed archlinux sucessfully after some problems.
    but the system use a lot of memory (free said me 184mb) only with irssi, finch, mp3blaster and midori opened and is "slower" than when i used slitaz linux in it, why?
    well, the things that i installed in arch are:
    xorg + xf86-video-intel
    jwm
    irssi, finch, mp3blaster, htop.
    midori, opera, elinks, links-g, epiphany.
    geany, leafpad, go-openoffice, djview4, gnumeric, epdfview
    isomaster, inkscape, gpicview, cdrkit, mtpaint.
    pcmanfm, emelfm2, hal.
    octave, mathematica5, R, wxmaxima,gnuplot.
    nrg2iso, lxsplit, dclock.
    here is a screenshot:
    the pc have this skills:
    800mhz celeron 370
    MB gygabite gaw-mm7

    i've read i can disable the kernel modules that i don't need to improve the memory usage.
    which modules i can disable without "kill my system"?. i don't want SATA, DVD, bluray, infrared, floppys, bluetooth, usb3.0, 3d video card, dial-up-integrated modem, ntfs, 'cause mi old is so old. i want it only for the university.
    thanks in advantage for the tips, and sorry if someone can't understand very well that i wanna tell you, english isn't my "mother languaje".

    thanks for the answers. yes, i have a 1 gb of swap.
    i think i can reduce the memory usage of the system if i dissable the kernel modules that i don't use. but, the question is: what modules is safe to disable to get it?
    thanks in advantage

  • Xorg memory leak [Solved]

    Lately i've been noticing that whenever i run any app in fullscreen, X will eat ram like crazy. I've just been reading a PDF in Okular for 5 mins and X shot up from 50MB to 645MB.
    This is a fresh install, and i was having this problem before i reinstalled Arch. It happens when i run any app from what i can tell. Definitely chromium and okular, i'll have to test others.
    I'm currently running twinview with Nvidia 195.36.08-1 and Xorg 1.7.5-1
    Last edited by Mountainjew (2010-03-03 14:27:40)

    It's an 85 page Linux Journal magazine. Though, shouldn't that just put high memory usage on okular, not X?
    It's the same when running Chromium fullscreen though, so i don't think it's just an issue with Okular.
    Ah nevermind, i had it set to aggressive ram usage, put it back to normal and it seems ok.

  • Problem with Firefox and very heavy memory usage

    For several releases now, Firefox has been particularly heavy on memory usage. With its most recent version, with a single browser instance and only one tab, Firefox consumes more memory that any other application running on my Windows PC. The memory footprint grows significantly as I open additional tabs, getting to almost 1GB when there are 7 or 8 tabs open. This is as true with no extensions or pluggins, and with the usual set, (firebug, fire cookie, fireshot, XMarks). Right now, with 2 tabs, the memory is at 217,128K and climbing, CPU is between 0.2 and 1.5%.
    I have read dozens of threads providing "helpful" suggestions, and tried any that seem reasonable. But like most others who experience Firebug's memory problems, none address the issue.
    Firefox is an excellent tool for web developers, and I rely on it heavily, but have now resorted to using Chrome as the default and only open Firefox when I must, in order to test or debug a page.
    Is there no hope of resolving this problem? So far, from responses to other similar threads, the response has been to deny any responsibility and blame extensions and/or pluggins. This is not helpful and not accurate. Will Firefox accept ownership for this problem and try to address it properly, or must we continue to suffer for your failings?

    55%, it's still 1.6Gb....there shouldn't be a problem scanning something that it says will take up 300Mb, then actually only takes up 70Mb.
    And not wrong, it obviously isn't releasing the memory when other applications need it because it doesn't, I have to close PS before it will release it. Yes, it probably is supposed to release it, but it isn't.
    Thank you for your answer (even if it did appear to me to be a bit rude/shouty, perhaps something more polite than "Wrong!" next time) but I'm sitting at my computer, and I can see what is using how much memory and when, you can't.

  • Problem with scanning and memory usage

    I'm running PS CS3 on Vista Home Premium, 1.86Ghz Intel core 2 processor, and 4GB RAM.
    I realise Vista only sees 3.3GB of this RAM, and I know Vista uses about 1GB all the time.
    Question:
    While running PS, and only PS, with no files open, I have 2GB of RAM, why will PS not let me scan a file that it says will take up 300Mb?
    200Mb is about the limit that it will let me scan, but even then, the actual end product ends up being less than 100Mb. (around 70mb in most cases)I'm using a Dell AIO A920, latest drivers etc, and PS is set to use all avaliable RAM.
    Not only will it not let me scan, once a file I've opened has used up "x" amount of RAM, even if I then close that file, "x" amount of RAM will STILL be unavaliable. This means if I scan something, I have to save it, close PS, then open it again before I can scan anything else.
    Surely this isn't normal. Or am I being stupid and missing something obvious?
    I've also monitored the memory usage during scanning using task manager and various other things, it hardly goes up at all, then shoots up to 70-80% once the 70ishMb file is loaded. Something is up because if that were true, I'd actually only have 1Gb of RAM, and running Vista would be nearly impossible.
    It's not a Vista thing either as I had this problem when I had XP. In fact it was worse then, I could hardly scan anything, had to be very low resolution.
    Thanks in advance for any help

  • Problem with JTree and memory usage

    I have problem with the JTree when memory usage is over the phisical memory( I have 512MB).
    I use JTree to display very large data about structure organization of big company. It is working fine until memory usage is over the phisical memory - then some of nodes are not visible.
    I hope somebody has an idea about this problem.

  • High memory usage when many tabs are open (and closed)

    When I open Firefox the memory usage is about 70-100 MB RAM. When I'm working with Firefox I often open 15-20 tabs at once, then I close them and open others. Memory usage increaes up to 450 - 500 MB RAM. After closing the tabs the usage usually decreases, but after sometime. It starts decreasing very slow and never comes back to the level from the beginning. After few hours of work Firefox uses about 400 MB RAM even if one tab is open. First I thought it's because of my plugins (Firebug, Speed Dial, Adlock Plus) but I've checked it and it's not. I reinstalled Firefox but the problem occurs as well. I'm not sure if it's normal. Could you help me, please?

  • Memory usage of excel stays high after Macro is executed and excel crashes after trying to close it

    Hi,
    I'm trying to resolve an issue with an excel based tool. The macros retrieve data from an Oracle database and do calculations with the data. They also open and write into files in the same directory. The macros all run and finish the calculations. I can
    continue to use and modify the sheet. I can also close the workbook, however excel memory usage I see in the windows Task manager stays elevated.If I  close Excel it says: Excel stopped working and then it tries to recover information...
    I assume something in the macro did not finish properly and memory was not released. I would like to check what is still open (connection, stream or any other object) when I close the workbook I would like to have a list of all still used memory. Is there
    a possibility to do so.

    Thanks Starain,
    that's what I did the last days and found that the problem is in the
    newPrice_calculate (lastRow)
    function. This function retrieves data (sets it as arrays) which was correctly pasted into the sheet, loops through all rows and does math/calendar calculations with cell values using an Add-In("Quantlib")
    Public errorMessage as String
    Sub newPrice_calculate(lastRow)

    About OS X Memory Management and Usage
    Reading system memory usage in Activity Monitor
    Memory Management in Mac OS X
    Performance Guidelines- Memory Management in Mac OS X
    A detailed look at memory usage in OS X
    Understanding top output in the Terminal
    The amount of available RAM for applications is the sum of Free RAM and Inactive RAM. This will change as applications are opened and closed or change from active to inactive status. The Swap figure represents an estimate of the total amount of swap space required for VM if used, but does not necessarily indicate the actual size of the existing swap file. If you are really in need of more RAM that would be indicated by how frequently the system uses VM. If you open the Terminal and run the top command at the prompt you will find information reported on Pageins () and Pageouts (). Pageouts () is the important figure. If the value in the parentheses is 0 (zero) then OS X is not making instantaneous use of VM which means you have adequate physical RAM for the system with the applications you have loaded. If the figure in parentheses is running positive and your hard drive is constantly being used (thrashing) then you need more physical RAM.

  • MS Minimize and memory usage

    Hi,
    I noticed that if you minimize your dos window, your memory usage ( as shown in Windows task manager ) drops a lot. E.g. I have Tomcat running ( 15 MB usage ). When I minimize the Tomcat DOS window, the memory usage shows something like 160kB. Any ideas. What is the real usage ?
    Regards,
    Dieter Janssen

    When you minimize the window Java will run a garbage collection. But also be aware of that the memory usage in Windows task manager is shown in both the Mem Usage column and the VM Size column (you maybe need to add this to your Task manager).
    I hope this will help you!

  • Get CPU and memory usage

    Hi!
    I would like to know if there is any way of getting system CPU and memory usage using Java code.

    I want to get the system CPU and memory usage using the performance monitor dll, the perfctrs.dll, but access this data using Java language.Then you should create wrapper dll between your java code and perfctrs.dll and convert data from format of dll to format of your java code.
    So, that is next question - how to create wrapper dll, how to deal with or how perfctrs.dll works?

  • Memory Usage.

    Good day to you all,
    Im using the miracl library for my program(www.shamus.ie). it is a c/c++ library
    I compiled its dll and made it run on windows.
    i also compiled it on linux but i didnt use the exact source codes because there are differences in compiling in linux.
    my problem is that memory usage on windows is 4mb per client while on linux, it is 23mb per client.
    Is it because i compiled the linux version wrong?
    should windows memory usage be way lower than linux memory usage?
    should i run my app on a linux or windows?
    Is JNI really faster on windows?
    Thanks

  • Memory usage problem on AIX 7.1

    Hi,
    We are running Oracle 11GR2 EE on AIX 7.1 and keep getting alerts on the pgchecks (memory paging).
    The alerts are coming from another system monitoring tool (Hobbit), but our sys admins are telling us it is because we are overallocating memory.
    In our case, we have an 8G SGA for the only database.
    Then, we are running grid and ASM.
    How can I check the actual (real) memory usage by individual processes of our Oracle database, our emagent (OMS agent), and for our ASM. In our case, we have 32G of Real Memory installed, and we should not be having a memory paging issue.
    For the Oracle database, it is set for 8G.
