https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=31412 --- Comment #4 from Kevin <kjslag@xxxxxxxxx> 2011-03-18 21:25:15 --- The problem occurred in 2.6.37 also. Logging out of X doesn't get the memory back. I'm also not sure if just scrolling a lot causes the problem. It seems to be easier for me to consume memory by opening many .pdf files. Here is some output after logging out of X (I still had about ~30MB from root processes): $ free -m total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 5920 2668 3252 0 96 1088 -/+ buffers/cache: 1484 4436 Swap: 7998 0 7998 $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/radeon_vram_mm 0x00000000-0x00000040: 0x00000040: used 0x00000040-0x00000140: 0x00000100: used 0x00000140-0x00000141: 0x00000001: used 0x00000141-0x0000092a: 0x000007e9: used 0x0000092a-0x00040000: 0x0003f6d6: free total: 262144, used 2346 free 259798 $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/radeon_gtt_mm 0x00000000-0x00000001: 0x00000001: used 0x00000001-0x00000011: 0x00000010: used 0x00000011-0x00000111: 0x00000100: used 0x00000111-0x00000211: 0x00000100: used 0x00000211-0x00020000: 0x0001fdef: free total: 131072, used 529 free 130543 -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching the assignee of the bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Colocation vs. Managed Hosting A question and answer guide to determining the best fit for your organization - today and in the future. http://p.sf.net/sfu/internap-sfd2d -- _______________________________________________ Dri-devel mailing list Dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
