Description:
<!-- Don't request update of package. We have a script for that. https://alpha.de.repo.voidlinux.org/void-updates/void-updates.txt . However, a quality pull request may help. -->
### System
* xuname:
*output of ``xuname`` (part of xtools)*
Void 5.8.16-050816-generic x86_64 AuthenticAMD uptodate rrrmFFF
* package:
*affected package(s) including the version*: ``xbps-query -p pkgver <pkgname>``
plasma-desktop-5.20.0_1
### Expected behavior
Consume less memory
### Actual behavior
plasma-shell and kwin_X11 are consume high memory compare to Kubuntu, for example.
### Steps to reproduce the behavior
Using KDE Plasma
Hi there...
I am back again using VoidLinux.
Now I had noticed that KDE Plasma consume more RAM than Kubuntu, for instance.
Without nothing open (like chromium) I had saw at least 1.6GB and when checked about what process could consume such ram, I saw plasmashell and kwin_x11 which consume near 1GB.
My laptop is a Aspire A515-41G with 16GB of ram and SSD Samsung EVO 120GB.
Is there some issue with KDE 5.19 runnig on top of VoidLinux?

Do you have any extensions/widgets enabled?
This could be a memory leak, an issue upstream.

Well... It's sad, but I backup do KDE Neon (Ubuntu Focal Based) and everything is nice!
I hope VoidLinux could improve itself and perhaps I could return to this this nice distro.
For now I will continue with Neon.
Thanks

Comment:
This is obviously something with your setup or environment.
Running 5.20.0 from a Live ISO inside VirtualBox with 8GB memory and 8 CPU cores I see a physical memory usage of 6% which translates to about 492 MiB when running a Terminal and the Info Center. Are you sure your figures were physical and not virtual memory?

Not really something we can act on, and I haven't seen any reports of the issue elsewhere.
Closing for now, feel free to reopen if we get some more actionable information.

I'm currently running into this issue with Plasma 5.23. Even with no windows open on a cold boot and desktop effects disabled, System Monitor reports that about 18 GB out of 32 is used. That's excessive.

Clearing the cache as suggested above did not make a difference.
Let me know what more information you need.

Seems like it's the Virtual Memory usage that's spiking. There's gotta be a solution for this.

I've heard something similiar on Linux Mint which was caused by buggy GPU drivers.
Maybe you could check out the kernel log and graphic logs?

Surely you could at least check the kernel and X11 log to see if something is suspicious.
