[Bug 1750403] Re: Live Session - Increased memory usage with preinstalled snap (fails to start with - gnome-session timeout)

[Jean-Baptiste Lallement]

Originally it was 1GB. I think the increased memory usage is caused by snapd that unsquashes the snaps. 
The other issue is that gnome-shell times out which may or may not be related to the extra delay imposed by snapd. This point must be verified.

** No longer affects: casper (Ubuntu)
