Conky using 1.8GB of memory!?

[Stuart_M]

I'm with @Eadwine Rose on this - I too would like to see the Conky file/code to analyze and run on my system.

Did this Conky always have the high memory use? Do other Conky files have high memory use?



Probably won't help in your case, but look at https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php ... 51#p975551 from August 2011.

Changing the theme has significantly dropped it. The theme I was using is called utterly sweet and is my favorite, but I guess I need to stop using it.

As this is not a standard conky which comes with MX Linux.

You think everyone only uses themes that come pre installed with MX? I didn't mention it in the first post as I had no idea that the theme might be causing this.

Read the "How to ask for Help" which clearly states give information related to the matter.
Also, anything downloaded randomly from the web can cause you system to malfunction or in worst case
send out private data back into the web. So any attempt with e.g. secure VPN to protect your system from outside,
could be "nullified" by running stuff just download from the web. Conkies do have full access to all you data and can send out anything potentially including yout app-passwords depending whether and how they are protected and stored.

Can you please link or share the 'utterly sweet' conky theme file ?

It is downloaded from the Global theme from within KDE, not from a 'random search' on the internet.

Dunno if it has been suggested yet or not, but can you start the conky through the terminal, the output might give a clue on what is causing it.

I went to the global theme in settings and searched for it and installed it. I did not download it from outside of that.
