Memory leak "Accessing a sequence while it is being sorted or searched is not allowed"

[bobdanek]

When launching ilia quickly after logging into a regolith-session-sway session, the window froze and system became unresponsive. I was able to catch that it was Ilia when I switched over to a tty.

I"m on Pop!_OS 22.04 with regolith-desktop using sway. ilia version is 0.12.

Happy to provide more logs or info if there are other things I can look for. Thanks!

I also have the same problem and it happens when either I type too fast while ilia is starting up or keeps typing while ilia is sorting the results found.

Is there anything that we could do to temporarily fix this?

I might have the same problem. I am not sure how to reproduce it, but often ilia is leaking memory and crashes my system. I have to drop to another tty and kill it.

@s-minoo and @dimitrios-git are you also on POP-OS? if not what OS are you running?

You might try disabling loading icons, that should result in at least a 50% performance increase, more depending on icon complexity and total number of apps.

@kgilmer Sorry, I forgot to mention that. I am on Ubuntu 22.04.03 LTS.
I set my icon size to 0 now. Faster and maybe I like it better as well. I will keep using it like this and report back if the issue reoccurs. Thanks!

@kgilmer I am also on Ubuntu 22.04.03 LTS version. For now I just switched to the old rofi.
