Very big memory leak

Open fragmential opened this issue 3 years ago • 15 comments

Screenshot 2022-02-17 at 15 26 36 In the past few weeks, every now and then while having telegram open in the background, I will get the notification that I have run out of application memory. And Telegram will have around 100GB of memory used, and it increases very fast (a gigabyte every few seconds)

This has been happening the last few versions, but this is version 8.5.226936 Stable. I am running it on an M1 MacBook Pro with macOS 11.6

I can't explain very precisely how to reproduce it, as it happens seemingly randomly, and usually while I am working in a different application.

In my case the problem was resolved after upgrading to Monterey 12.2. Looks like it's a bug in MacOS. Now Telegram consumes 500-700mb of ram during the day.

System:

  • Macbook Air M1
  • 16 GB Ram

Ran into this today. How is this NOT fixed yet?

My guess is that the contributors of this project don't use Apple Silicon Macs and can't reproduce it. It seems everyone here (in this thread) has some variant of M1.

It's notoriously difficult to fix a random memory leak that isn't consistently reproducible with a specific setup.

I should have mentioned this was on a x86-based machine. Specifically, the 2014 iMac Retina 5k, so it doesn't seem to be specific to Apple silicon.

Oh, interesting. Then I'm surprised no one has figured out the cause yet.

the thing is, the developer just doesn't give a shit. And somehow it's an official telegram client.

The issue is easily reproducible even on intels, just keep the client open for some time and get a few gigs sucked in.

This issue is still persisted on Sonoma 14.4.

The same is here. still even in Sequoia (and before on Sonoma); 2-3 gigs for nothing.
