What did you do?

I just opend the client-go directory, the memory usage will be increased dramatically, after a while, it will be fixed at a certain value, in my os, about 6G. I'm not sure whether the symbolic link affect the gopls, because in k8s vendor directory, it's a link to staging directory.

What did you expect to see?

Keep memory utilization at a low level when using gopls.

What did you see instead?

the memory usage increase dramtically.

Thanks for the report, @microyahoo. @heschik has been working on improving gopls's memory usage (https://golang.org/cl/242838), so we will try out your repro case once that change is merged.

The situation looks good to me at master. You can try for yourself with the instructions on https://github.com/golang/tools/blob/master/gopls/doc/user.md#unstable-versions, or wait for the next release.

@heschik Thanks for your quick response, I have try it, seems it still keeps large memory usage as below.

I'm confused if I open the other repo like etcd, the memory usage is stable in 2.2G, but if I open kubernetes/vendor/k8s.io/client-go, the memory will be run out quickly.

None of your commands actually show the memory usage of gopls, so I'm not sure what I'm supposed to be looking at here.

When gopls uses a lot of memory, it writes debugging information to /tmp/gopls.*-withnames.zip. Please attach the one corresponding to the highest heap size here.

Hi @heschik , I'm really sorry for my late reply. I have attached the log, please do not hesitate to contact me in case of any query.

You said that you opened the client-go directory, but the zip file that you uploaded looks more like it's dealing with all of Kubernetes. Can you confirm which directory you're opening?

Kubernetes is a huge project and unfortunately it's going to use a lot of memory. https://golang.org/cl/248180 will help a tiny bit if you download the very latest master, but right now I don't see any big surprises. We will continue to pay attention to memory usage but I don't think things are going to get much better right now.

Thanks for your analysis. The client-go is underneath the Kubernetes project.

The directory you open as the workspace directory in VS Code defines the project that gopls will load and analyze. You appear to be opening the top-level Kubernetes directory as your workspace; if you open the client-go directory instead, gopls will use much less memory.

If you have any further questions please update to the latest master, and include both a fresh memory debug zip and the gopls server logs, as described in https://github.com/golang/tools/blob/master/gopls/doc/troubleshooting.md#capturing-logs.
