Seconded. Seeing this problem, too. Latest 64bit Firefox, various recent Ubuntu versions, Lenovo Thinkpad, Dell XPS13. Would be nice if the webapp wouldn’t require a restart every couple of hours.

Hi there @kommadieb 

Thank you for your patience. Have you tried using it on the new Microsoft Edge? It performs lighter on my end 

Same issue here (Linux 64bits / Chrome 80.0)

The Deezer tab does not use a lot of memory itself, but the Browser one is constantly leaking memory when using “flow”

Closing the Deezer tab will free the memory in the Browser process however

Hi @Romuald Brunet 

Thanks for the detailed feedback. So just to confirm, it isn't Deezer itself, but when you play Flow? It's important for our devs to understand exactly where it's coming from (or in this case, going to). Could you also try on Discovery or Chill cards?

@Rudi It happens when I play Flow, but also when playing playlists (loved tracks in my test)

I’ll try Discovery / Chill cards tomorrow

The memory growth is very slow FYI, it takes a few hours to go up to up to a Gigabyte of memory (for example I’m at 350Mb after about one hour, starting from ~ 120Mb initialy)

It only occurs when playing, I have the tab kept open all night without any change

Hi again @Romuald Brunet 

Thanks a lot for coming back to us and providing further details. I'll keep passing your comments to our developers as feedback! 

same issue here, if I use web deezer player in firefox, it consumes all memory I have in half a day

Hi @mce thank you for contacting us. Please bear in mind that we do not support Ubuntu - Deezer does not work on Linux. You could try Google Chrome as a browser but we cannot guarantee this is working either. Apologies for any inconvenience caused. 

The same behaviour in Google Chrome. IMHO, as this is a web access app, it should work without serious issues in any browser following HTTP standard. I wouldn’t expect company like yours can afford to ignore Linux platform as a whole. You indirectly limit your user’s freedom of choice.

Hi there @mce 

Thanks for coming back to us.

We're unhappy about not supporting Linux at the moment so we understand your frustration - apologies we're unable to give you the integration you've been looking for.

It's just at this moment, this kind of development requires resources that are dedicated to more urgent features and fixes. This situation is likely to change in the future, but we also want to be transparent with you and the rest of the community. Follow this topic here for more info, some users shared their workarounds and there might be something for you 

Hi all, 

I’m having the same problem: when deezer in a browser is playing songs, the memory footprint of the browser process grows and grows, making it infeasible to enjoy deezer. This is on all my browsers (Chromium, Brave + Vivaldi (which both rely on Chromium), and Firefox (which does not)), ran on Linux Mint. 

I know you «don’t support Linux» but since the problem persists in several browsers, and arnaudd_fr reproduced the problem on Windows 7, there is evidence that this is not a Linux issue but a problem of the deezer browser app. 

Either way, I find this very frustrating - it makes deezer unusable on the desktop for me. Please make an effort to fix this, it has been two years with this problem now. 

best wishes

Kai

Same problem here! I just want to reinforce the impact of the problem! It does not last more than a half-day to run my computer out of memory.

Hey @Mateus Amarante @tobert 

I get you, really. Sorry to hear about your experience.

Could I please ask you to vote for this idea here (if you haven't already done so) and check if you can install an unofficial version of the desktop app for your Linux 

In the meantime I'll be forwarding your comments to our teams 

Bug confirmed with Firefox 78.0.2 - 64 bits under Ubuntu 20.04LTS.

As a french user, I recently changed to a hifi account and the memory leak is now extremely quick to take down the whole system memory (8Go+2Go swap) and crash/freeze the browser (in less than 2 hours of listening).

So the leak seems proportional to the selected audio quality. This problem is terrible and does not happen with other audio streaming providers i have tested. So this is probably not a linux-specific related issue.

Please fix it ASAP.
