GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 781081
Abnormal high memory consumption

Created attachment 349540 [details] Status of memory While looking at the memory consumption, gnome-calendar service has the highest usage with over 5 GiB alone in the background which is unacceptable for such application. The issues comes from updated Fedora 25 Workstation running on Gnome 3.22.x.
I've been receiving a few reports about that too, but I couldn't manage to reproduce this issue a single time since it was reported. Can you please run Calendar with Valgrind and try to reproduce that? (I know it's a long shot, but still, no easy answer).
Created attachment 349968 [details] Calender memory usage on system monitor Valgrind is installed and run the command to get information. Calendar still uses higher than 5GB memory.
Created attachment 349973 [details] [review] window: remove GSourceFunc once run The function is supposed to run once every minute. So after the function is run, just remove it from main thread. So that it won't act as a time bomb.

However, as it is, it doesn't help too much. Could you please run valgrind with "--leak-check=full" too? That way, valgrind will print all memory leaks it finds.
Review of attachment 349973 [details] [review]: Nice! Thanks for chasing that sneaky thieve down :)
Thanks for the patch! If the memory consumption doesn't go down, please reopen this bug. Attachment 349973 [details] pushed as 1c9686b - window: remove GSourceFunc once run
