Memory leak in browser and Deezer desktop app

Thanks for the feedback @Alessandro Massignan 

For Linux, we're working on an Electron app to facilitate the Deezer experience for more users. Stay tuned for updates! 

No! If you’ll develop Electron App for Linux, you’ll use it on Windows too :( Electron framework is slow piece of shit eating for all resources. I hopped for UWP/PWA…

You changed me to the blue mood.

Hi @jirikovoego 

At the moment we're unable to develop a different type of app. But we'll keep holding on for different take in the future!

Thank you for your support 

I also report the bug. it doesn't make sense, after a few hours Deezer can easily be consuming 6GB of RAM, I'm using the HI-FI plan. For the desktop version in windows, with the music already downloaded it consumes 50Mb of network even 100Mb constantly, which does not make sense either.

We totally understand and it's one of our aims to get this much better in the future @Nico S. thanks for the feedback!

In the meantime, our updated app should also improve the RAM usage, so stay tuned 

I add myself into this thread since I also have this issue (and tried reporting it on the french counterpart of this website two months ago but got no response : https://fr.deezercommunity.com/autres-appareils-35/problemes-avec-votre-navigateur-internet-symptomes-et-resolution-15?postid=109210#post109210 ).

I’m running Linux (Debian) with Firefox (but I tried Chromium too), and it usually fills my 16GB of ram in about 6 hours, so I had to add an automatic refresh of deezer tab every 4 or 5 hours.

I’m happy to hear that a new interface is being worked on, I hope it will fix it and other bugs (Cf. link above)!

Also, if there is a way to test it before it’s ready for public release, I bet some people here — including me — would be glad to try it and give feedback.

Sure thing! @Dagrut 

That's really nice feedback from you.

Yes, and we've made some progress internally this week. Things are a bit slow but all going well.

Our current app has had a big update as well, to version 5.0, and I noticed the performance improved. Looking forward to what's coming next 

I'll keep your name on the radar for future testing too 

Hello,

I want to report that I also am suffering from the memory leak on desktop (W10). Uninstalling and deleting the folders doesn’t resolve it. App restarts after approx. ±1 hour of playback with RAM usage of up to 6 Gb (that i have seen).

Hardware specs:

• Monitor: Asus PG279Q
• MOBO:  MSI B450 Pro carbon AC
• Prrocessor: AMD R3600
• Videocard: Gigabyte GTX 1080Ti Aorus Xtreme
• 16Gb Ram @3600 Mhz
• Ask away if u need more info

The issue is there since I started my subscription around 2 years ago.

Extra: What is the status on gapless playback?

Regards Glenn

Gapless is still on our roadmap but I don't have concrete dates yet @Loeki 

Thanks for asking and obviously thank you for your feedback, I've passed it on 

Hi there,

Suffering from massive memory leaks on Mac ; 1.75Gb usage, more so than Adobe Photoshop being used in parallel. Problem resolved on reboot of desktop app, but very frustrating having to periodicially restart it all.
