Subject: fsck memory leak
Date: Fri, 4 Dec 2015 08:15:14 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <n3rei3$8l3$1@ger.gmane.org> (raw)

Hi,
when I as root do "touch /forcefsck" and reboot, then fsck will be done.
But afterwards one has less free memory available than normal.
Example:
used mem immediately after login:
  without fsck during boot:  98 MB (this the normal level here)
  with fsck during boot   : 139 MB
So, there is a memory leak of about 41 MB.

fsck from util-linux 2.25.2
Filesys: ext4, 500 MB SSD
OS: Debian 8 X86_64, uptodate
