Excessive memory usage (reversible) in links browser

(1/3) > >>

tinypoodle:
Found links in graphics mode using X with RES mem usage 99284 KB  :o
3 windows, last one was open since max. 2 days.
After closing last opened window RES mem usage dropped to 20260 KB
After hitting "Flush all caches" RES mem usage further dropped to 9004 KB
I only thought about looking at "Resources info" after I already had closed last opened window...

curaga:
Please report any bugs upstream as well.

Debian, Ubuntu, and Gentoo use the same 2.3pre1 version, and neither uses a patch for memory leak nor do I see it mentioned in any open bugs related to it.  

Doesn't mean that there is not a leak, I am just going to hold off on downgrading back to 2.2.  I will open a window, surf a little, and leave it open the next few days while I am gone and see if I observe the same behavior.

Can reproduce:

uploading file of 5657 KB as webmail attachment

RES mem before: 9008 KB
                  after: 76952 KB
                  after saving mail as draft: 99600 KB
                  after closing window: 20332 KB
                  flush all caches --> 9008 KB

2 windows are permanently open since at least 5 days.
So it is not a mem leakage of the app per se in the sense of being irreversible.

Isn't it just a cache which is causing a typical LINUX question, why free RAM is so low when nothing is running... ?
