emacs leaks memory after upgrade to 29.3
by j12i from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6KMXZ)
Hi,
after the latest upgrade of Emacs in Slackware64 15.0, some stuff was broken so I did M-x package-upgrade-all, and after that everything seemed to work just fine. But today I noticed my system becoming slow whenever I ran emacs, and sure, it takes a full virtual CPU core (shows at 12.3% CPU untilisation) and eats RAM like there's no tomorrow. I've seen it stop growing at 5.5 GB or even go up above 8.
Is there a way to debug this, see what inside emacs is doing this?
