I´m a little concerned now because i really do not know how to debug memory problems. Quite many times i have read from bugzilla how i should look for non typical process behavior but i do not know what it really means.
For example when some process is swapping too much?
Also i´m bit worried how multiple daemons that use python effect on system. [...] is there going to be problems after you have installed e.g. 10 of daemons which rely on python?

"In general it's a bad idea to use Python in an always running process like
Statusbar or Home. I think at least touchsearch uses python (after removing applets, you need to restart Home to get rid of their memory usage in Home too)."
"I think the main issue is Python and whatever brings it into Home (fmtx
applet?). Using things like Python for always running processes is a reallybad idea. Python increases the memory usage significantly and normally one doesn't get rid of almost any memory usage increases created by it (due to memory fragmentation), even if the Python code itself would free it."
I have enabled all repositories and when i have enough free time I test applications that i find interesting. I´m a little concerned now because i really do not know how to debug memory problems. Quite many times i have read from bugzilla how i should look for non typical process behavior but i do not know what it really means. I have also installed some debug tools for memory/process tracking but it´s bit hard to use them because I can't spot problems and if i find some like UI slowing down and there is no high cpu i still do not know what to search and exactly what range of numbers are worrying or not common on this system.
For example when some process is swapping too much?
Also i´m bit worried how multiple daemons that use python effect on system. It seems that these handy programs merge daily and they might add some basic functions to phone, but is there going to be problems after you have installed e.g. 10 of daemons which rely on python?
