Thread: What on earth is polkit doing ?????


i leave machine on 24/7, , connect in via x2go. logging in last week, noticed memory usage, out of 4gb running @ 95% - machine doing absolutely nothing. digging through processes, seemed "polkitd" using 3gb of memory.

killed process, , immediately, memory usage dropped 3%.

logging in again today, guess ? yup ... memory usage @ 97%, , polkitd again.

can tell me (a) if expected , (b) on earth polkitd need memory.

after all, if wanted weird processes start using resources, have stuck windows.
