It’s interesting how close they are to one another. I don’t understand why there is a Dropbox column and didn’t see it mentioned anywhere else. Another question I have is how much RAM the system has in total, as that seems to affect consumption.
Thank you for noticing my omission. I added the following:
NB.: Dropbox is shown because it runs at login and is a large contaminant in terms of memory utilization on each window manager (setup). If you do NOT use Dropbox you should expect your idle memory use to be lower than my total by some 600MB.
That makes way more sense. I remember plasma idling around 1.4 GiB back when I was running Arch with 16 GB of RAM. Although right now on my Kubuntu machine at work, I’m using 3.0 / 110 GiB just being on the desktop.
Another factor impacting memory significantly is the kernel used. My liquorix kernel “updated” this morning and I am using 200MB less memory than yesterday; it must be my lucky day. 😜
