I don't know if it is maybe too early to notice this or maybe not the best place to do so, but I wanted to warn Gentoo developers to not stabilize this version (when that time comes) until the issue https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-system-monitor/-/issues/302 is fixed as it has severe memory leaks that should be addressed before.

Are you still hitting this with 47 version? If still the case, I would try to locally test with versions between 45 and 46, to try to find the commit causing this issue https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-system-monitor/-/blob/main/NEWS?ref_type=heads#L38 Thanks

Total RAM usage after start: 3.66GB Ram usage after 2.5h: 4.04GB Ram usage after close: 3.66GB While there are about 400MB in usage which seems too much I do not observe any major impact on memory leaks so I think this can be marked as fixed. Thanks.
