So I have a pretty modern utrabook (1.7GHz Core i5-2557M processor, 4GB of RAM) with Lubuntu on it.
It is pretty fast, but sometimes, after quite some while (and many browser tabs open + a rails server running for quite a while), it can get slow ... really slow ...
I'm trying to figure out where the memory leak is. Thing is, I have no clue how to analyse the task monitor, and to possibly close the leaking program, instead of having to reboot.
Questions:
- What is the best resources indicator? CPU ? RSS ? Memory ? State ?
- Is there anywhere else I could look around to analyse memory leaks?
Thanks
