I don't know where that line is coming from:

github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/blob/master...mac/plasmac_stats.py

Thanks, I haven't had time to take a better look yet. I think I would stay away from master for a while until they sort out all the Python3 stuff.

I just put in a PR for this, it was from the state tags merge into master.

Interesting. I wonder what triggers it? I left mine (I'm on 2.9) sit for over 2 hours the other day and the memory didnt go up at all. Perhaps maybe I needed to do something though.

You should be able to see it, mine was about 3Mb per minute.
The text widget that displays the active gcodes has the option of an undo/redo buffer and for some reason it was being enabled although according to the tkinter docs the default is disabled. It is updated around 6 ~ 10 times per second so each update adds the existing codes to the buffer size.

Weird. I definitely dont see that. I've been meaning to go to the buildbot 2.8, it's just hard to pull the trigger when at the moment, everything is working as it should (I think, have to do some more THCAD testing).

Maybe it is version dependent, I use the Stretch ISO.

If you are happy using master then that is fine, just don't be surprised if something breaks. Usually breakages are repaired reasonably quickly. If you do commercial work I would recommend 2.8.
