High Ram usage in cosmic applications #138
Comments
I am experiencing the same with high ram usage and also the applets being taking a long time to show output when i click o them. |
@modisek I hava the same experience with you, especially the applets. |
I cloned cosmic-term repo and build it locally ( |
On archlinux, cosmic-term use 60MB. So maybe some logic of iced on nixos leads to this problem. |
Hi thanks for the hint @Itsusinn you lead me on the right track, |
Thanks for that workaround @Thorndur after reducing my fonts, memory usage has gone down for everything excluding the cosmic-applets which seems to be using a lot of ram still..Other than that its now somewhat usable for me |
I made a pull request for cosmic-text sereval days ago, which makes parsing process quicker. At that time i didn't notice it used so much RAM. But now I think reducing fonts that need to be parsed is root of the problem. |
Is this still an issue? It should probably be reported upstream instead of here |
I think it is be fixed already. |
There is the related upstream issue pop-os/cosmic-text#282 |
Hi @lilyinstarlight,
i'm trying out Cosmic on nixos 24.11 and what i noticed is that many the Cosmic application use a lot of ram on my machine (Framework 13 amd so a x86_64 machine).
I'm not sure if that is a problem with the nix flake or with Cosmic Epoch itself.
But as other Cosmic users, don't seem to have the problem I ask here.
Specifically cosmic-comp, a bunch of applets and a few other applications all have roughly the same memory usage of ~1.4GB per process (about half of that is shared, please see screenshot of htop).
Which seems very big to me.
The applications and applets also take a while to open for the first time, which is probably related.
I have these sevices set and i'm using the cosmic cachix cache.
services.desktopManager.cosmic.enable = true;
services.displayManager.cosmic-greeter.enable = true;
Thanks for the great work on the flake, I really appreciate it!
