Hello,
I've been using emacs-27.0.50 built from git for quite a some time, no
issues were found until recently.
Yesterday I've installed the latest version from source and got a few
issues with it.
1) Memory issues. In almost no time it ate >6Gb of RSS and around 8GB or
Virtual RAM. My OS: linux/arch, all default compilation options (no
change to conigure flags).
Just to compare it, I've worked with same code in same project but with
emacs-26.1.92 for another 6 hours and it only consumed 1.2Gb so far.
I will keep my eye on memory profiling, and will report more exact
issues (profiler-start ram), any advice here? Also, quite strange
that I've closed all buffers and still see that it consumes 6GB or
RAM. Any documention how actually emacs returns RAM to host O/S ?
2) Compilation mode stopped 'catching' the lines:
pycodestyle /home/k/tmp/a.py
/home/k/tmp/a.py:5:1: E303 too many blank lines (3)
When I try to press enter on any error, I get:
In *Messages* buffer I see it:
user-error: No error here
(its also not highlited)
3) Wierd behavior of 'recentf-cleanup'. At first, it is disabled in my
config:
'(recentf-auto-cleanup 'never)
Also, I've even tried to 'hide' this function from visibility
by redefining it in my config file as:
(defun recentf-cleanup() (interactive))
But it suddenly gots redefined after some period, and starts
auto-execution quite often. For example current emacs session last
for 5hrs and it already got executed 12 times (from *Messages*)
Also, it does it quite aggressively, not paying attention to
file-remote-p or anything else, trying to reopen all my tramp
visited files one after one. That is quite strange.
This is the most annoying thing because it came up often requiring me
to press C-g many times until it actually stops looking to clean my
old, remote, hidden by firewall files. The only workaround worked for
me is to completely remove the recentf history file, so now this
function has nothing to deal with.
Any hints on all above? I understand that I should not expect something
really stable from development version of emacs, but may be I can help
on narrowing down and fixing some of those issues?
Should I just report all those as separte bugs via M-x report-emacs-bug?
WBR,
Alex
