Why is GDM kept around for Gnome logins? Is there a way to disable this "parent" GDM
process?
Over the course of a few days the GDM user process of gnome-shell balloons in memory
usage from very small to very large. The following stats were produced on a box with
a 5 day uptime and 8 GB of RAM.
PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
1051 gdm 20 0 3024276 1.513g 23336 S 0.0 19.4 0:45.92 gnome-shell
1594 mcronen+ 20 0 2484876 469104 51276 S 3.0 5.7 47:02.37 gnome-shell
This is a recurring theme[1]. Are there known fixes? (Only in Gnome Shell 3.18+?)
