Comment 56 for bug 270437

I have a very small idea what this might be. I'm not really sure how much of it can be fixed or where the leak itself is. When using the 'Super' + space to type in and launch an application, memory starts to get used. Doing 'Super'+space several times in a row will cause the memory to increase, but it looks like Do never gives the memory back.

I personally use Do to launch everything from a terminal several times a day, to just getting a web browser up and running. I'm not sure if the System Monitor has much do do with the amount of memory being used, but i have now disabled that plugin.

If I had my guess something is being remembered in a db in memory. That db or file needs to be dumped from time to time or just truncated.
