Memory leak in browser and Deezer desktop app

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.
