Memory issues after upgrading react/react-native version

[bitshadow]

Looks like after upgrading the react-native and react versions app started crashing because of the memory leaks. I did the profiling which shows something like this. I am using around 12+ images in the app.

In older version of react/react-native it seems to work fine and occupies around ~11Mb of data.

    "react": "16.3.1",
    "react-native": "0.55.3",

This is how it looked before. https://medium.freecodecamp.org/finding-memory-leaks-react-native-app-ios-46e6eeb50c8c

@bitshadow I read your article. exactly we have the same issue with react-native-fast-image. based on your issue here, is this library a good alternative choice to use in RN 0.57 ?

We're also experiencing the same memory issue: Using RN 0.58.6

Any update on this?
