Subject: bug#36100: Jami leaks memory
Date: Sat, 01 Jun 2019 09:08:59 -0500

Hello,

When I run Jami in the GNU system installed with Guix, I see that its process called ".gnome-ring-rea" starts using around 36 MiB, but then increases over time at slow pace. After some hours, I notice it reaches 1 GiB of memory usage. I have to finalize the process to release memory. 

This happens even when you are not doing anything in the application.


## Steps to reproduce (using GNOME)

1. $ guix install jami-client-gnome
2. Press Alt+F2 and run "ring.cx"
    [2.1 Create a Jami account]
3. Press Alt+F2 and run "gnome-system-monitor"
4. Click on "Processes"
5. Locate the ".gnome-ring-rea" process
6. Observe the "Memory" usage for a few hours

I don't know if step 2.1 is necessary, but I already had an account created when I noticed the problem for the first time.
