Hi everyone,
i just switched to i3 (specifically i3-gaps-rounded) from XFCE, and i noticed that after a few hours of just basic tasks (web browsing, watching videos etc) my memory would be filled up and my system would hang. This did not occur on XFCE. i3 config: https://termbin.com/468ej, if anything else is needed please ask.

Use vanilla i3 with a compositor to do rounded corners. i3-gaps was merged into i3 months ago.
assuming that's what rounded means in the name

try finding out what's causing the issue, install htop or any memory monitoring program and see.

My guess is that your i3blocks is updating very often and using up memory.

i3-gaps-rounded (https://github.com/jbenden/i3-gaps-rounded) is a fork of i3 that allows rounded window corners & gaps

As @random fable suggested, use a tool like top or htop to monitor what is taking up memory. If it’s the WM itself, test to see if it happens on vanilla i3.

alright

Also gaps are a feature in mainline i3 now and a compositor like picom can be used for rounded corners, so there isn’t really a reason to use that project anymore.

Tried picom, it didn't work.
corner-radius = 10;
round-borders = 1;
okay nvm
it does work now
had to up the round-borders option
