[Bug 987060] Re: massive memory leak in unity-panel-service and hud-service when invoking the hud on Firefox profiles with large amounts of bookmarks LTS 12.04 14.04

[Maximilian Wende]

Hi guys.

This bug affects my laptop as well, hud-service took a whole 2.2 GiB and
1 full core of cpu power, although i already removed many bookmarks in
Firefox (or are 30-40 still too much ...).

I'll look if i find something using valgrind, it's time to get this bug
fixed, it is already 3 years old.

I don't know why Ubuntu needs a web and bookmark search in its menu
whatsoever ... The only thing I (and possibly 99.998427631 % of other
people) use the search for is to start a program that I don't have in my
left bar.

Don't do it if you cannot do it right!

Greetings!
