Bug ID: 401056
Summary: akonadiserver mamory leak
Product: Akonadi
Version: 5.8.3
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: server
Assignee: kdepim-***@kde.org
Reporter: ***@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY

Morning, running akonadi server on my gentoo laptop, stable versions
I observe that starting plasma, in a few hours the memory consumption
gets full and laptop start paging. Top shows the akonadiserver is the
guilty on eating all the memory followed by chromium that consumes some
little percent but having a bunch of threads.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start plasma.
2. Work for ~3-4h.

OBSERVED RESULT

Top shows akonadiserver process takes a lot of memory.

EXPECTED RESULT

That akonadi takes memory that needs but doesn't grow
continuously over time.

(available in About System)

I recently migrated my kabylake laptop to a ryzen one and still the
behaviour is reproducible, which reduces the chances to be platform
dependant. only way to reliably work is to forcefully stop akonadiserver
through akonadictl stop.
