Unusual memory usage spike (~ 500 MiB) during login?

    Both:     https://account.proton.me/mail     https://account.proton.me/login     (the 2nd is mere login, not even loading Mail)

    Extraordinary amount of memory seems requested:     And soon released. (only for few seconds)     (is it really used..?)

    The behavior is unusual comparing to other crypto-mail, e.g. Tuta.     Where the login flow won't cause alike.

    Probably relevant:     https://github.com/ProtonMail/WebClients/issues/38#issuecomment-303186785

    Password change within the Settings interface would also cause alike.     Probably some suboptimal memory management was used for the key handling.
