Hi Dnaga,
Just a little update:
I'm at 696 hours (29 days) and multi tasking is compromised. All apps reload upon being brought to foreground.
Media players, downloads and all kinds of app that keep running in background also get shut down unexpectedly.
"System UI" is higher than ever, sitting at > 500mb.
As for the bug report, I've already shared with the email you provided, and here's the link anyway:

Appreciate the quick response, Dnaga.
Hope you guys can work this out once for all.
I've just hit 720h (1 month) and System UI won't stop growing on RAM.
I suspect the system won't last much longer, soon it'll reboot on its own.
Until that, I'm unable to multi-task of even listen to music, because everything in background gets shut down in no longer than 5 minutes.
If you need anything else, feel free to ask.

Same here,the last time i've rebotted my nexus it was when I've taken the last security update weeks ago, today the phone was slow, the launcher reload itself often , wuze and the others apps were not usable.
ra...@gmail.com
HERE WE GO AGAIN. Google and their uneducated testing methods. It kills me man. I actually saw this issue when I got the update and my launcher was redrawing more often than it did on Android L 5.1.1. This was on my Nexus 7 2013, which had finally started to behave smooth since it's last two updates on L. Now on Android M, it's basically memory leak issues again.
As for my phones. I had an Moto E and Moto X 2014,2015. Both of which with 5.1, never had the issue fix. It's even worst on the E with 1GB of ram. The leak caused a terrible experience on an otherwise good phone. It would happen after 24hrs, things got real slow and relaunched alot. Yet, some days it would run real smooth with same apps after 48hrs. Motorola engineers told me there is no issue. Called them idiots because the issue was clearly present. They, like Google, don't seem to know how to test well since they are lazy and don't care for user experience. Also they seem factory reset very often and test with limited apps as if that's gonna be a real user scenario.
Now I have 6P. With so much RAM, it's hardly a issue. But there days were my launcher still redraws and music app kills itself after I open a site.
I love Android. Just wish they'd focus on the user more.

Since this wasn't the case in 4.4 Kitkat, I bet it has to do with ART runtime. 1 year and 5 months since Lollipop Preview and still isn't fixed, good work Google!

I'm really GLAD to announce that this has been fixed in MMB29V.
Over 180h and SYSTEM UI hasn't grown at all.
Thanks Google for stepping up.

Hi there,
I wonder what happened since build MMB29V, where this problem was not present. Then, it returned in the following builds.
I suppose the changes you're making to the device tree is being overriden when generating newer builds?
I urge Google to pay attention to this, because this affects the user experience heavily. No one likes their phone to perform like a 256MB RAM equipped one.
Thanks for the attention anyway, hope not to run into this anymore in future builds.

Yep, after KitKat there is no android version that deserves the "stable end-user release" status. I'd suggest to completely stop developing new features for at least one year and just fix bugs and finally fix the the Nexus 9 performance issues as I bought an expensive high end tablet that is only useful for waiting for a fix and now eol is near and I couldn't use it yet.

Dear Google,
According to #21, this was fixed and was scheduled for "Future Release".
I don't know whether that meant the next security update (July) would fiz the issue, but if it was the case, I'm sorry to inform it failed.
The issue persists on MOB30P.

Oh, for God sake, people, we're receiving monthly SECURITY patches. Except one month with fix Nexus 5X, all of them didn't include any other changes made to the system (as far as I remember) and historically changes as big as this only included in a next major/minor release that never happened with 6.x.
It's like keep saying "Are we there yet?" I have it just as much as everyone release, but behave like a grown-up.

I agree, this is no place to complain. Just to talk about problems found and possible fixes or workarounds.
Whenever they think it has to be included, it will be. I guess they do not give it the importance many of you do, because it will be affecting a small percentage of users. So "Priority-Small".

After updating my motog2 to android6 my phone's memory usage goes up to 94%, which hardly reached 60% usage while on lollipop with same number of apps installed. My phone freezes, chrome gets crashed. I've done mistake to upgrade my phone to Android marshmallow.

#42 may be right, but that likely means that the fix will never reach Nexus 5, since it's not getting 7.0

Back up your MotoG and Hard Reset it. Marshmallow needs a reset on some

Symptoms caused by this memory leak, cannot, under coder/developer terminology, be classified as "priority small".
Can anyone from Google confirm a release build or date that this fix will be released? That's what a reputable company would do, especially for a product affecting millions of users! As an Android user, I am not satisfied with "fixed...will be released in a future build..." Could you please be more specific?

Unfortunately, this is not fixed in MOB30Y.
178h of uptime, and System UI is averaging at 170mb... Whereas in my girlfriend's Moto X 2014 running 6.0.1, it's at 70mb-ish with a 201h uptime.
This was solved in MMB29V, I don't know why Google can't fix this once for all.

@Google Is this fixed in Android 7.0 (Build NRD90M) on the Nexus 5X? After a few days of uptime I again had the symptoms of a memory leak in terms of unresponsive UI etc. I hope this fix is not in NRD90M and comes with the next monthly update or else the issue has not been resolved and needs further investigation :(

Same here , still having UI not responsive.

One more thing to add: my Antutu score is around 40k only. The way it score
is much lower then it should be . Nexus 6p now become middle to low end
phone. I wonder whats wrong ? Does this related to why the phone is perform
badly ?

You'll see that clicks on the power button as well as touch events sometimes are not registered or are delayed. Also you'll see that the launcher seems to be re-instantiated.
Additionally I attached a screenshot of the memory usage of the last 24 hours.

Description
I've been keeping my device ON for almost 28 days now, only to find out that "System" will continue to eat through your RAM non-stop, again.
Right after boot, it's at 300-400mb, and now I'm at almost 1 GB of usage, and it never decreases.
The symptons of lack of RAM are already well known:
- Launcher redrawing constantly when returning from home screen
- Musics apps get terminated for no reason in background, and you end up thinking your earbuds died
- Multi-tasking is virtually impossible, because the apps reload upon launching them, thus losing all your input info, like text, for example.
However, with Marshmallow's new "Memory" dedicated submenu, I think I managed to spot the culprit.
I noticed that "System UI" won't stop growing it's footprint. As you can see in the attached screenshots, it's maximum RAM usage exceeded the 580mb mark, and the average use is 472mb, which is more or less 4x the usage after a fresh boot.
All the other apps are OK in this regard. Even "Android OS" is keeping it cool.
I'm willing to help however I can, providing prints, logcats and whatever else is needed to investigate this.
- Nexus 5 D821
- Android 6.0 MRA58K
- Locked bootloder, totally stock software
