Consistent with my earlier findings. I have no idea why packagekitd or gnome-software are even running (by default) on liveOS. The double gnome-shell with extra for gdm is not a bug per se but is known about and is suboptimal. Those three make up about 25% of the total used. It's pretty oinky. Also there's some separate memory reduction work sup posedly happening for gnome-shell but I'm not sure what the status of that is. -- Chris Murphy _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/message/4HKKO6SSQSFRRBSMWOVDD252SWIDVS37/
