swww Massive ram usageof 5GB on the swww-daemon

not entirely sure why but moments after it starts the usage spikes significantly.

I set the daemon to autostart on my hyprland.conf and it always takes maybe half a minute to a minute to start and once it does my 16gb of ram is already used up 50% (I attached my current fresh session processes below)

If you need any other specific information just ask

The files are too big to upload to github, do you have any other way I can send them to you?

Alright, @Quark04, this might be solved with the daemon rewrite of swww version 0.8.0 (latest released version). Could you test it when you have time?
