The song that impacted you the most -THE THREAD 🔉
Hi @j94, Really sorry to hear about it. Our team is already aware of the issue and are working on it. On the other hand, would you be able to try it on Chrome and see if that works out better for you by any chance? I tried this morning with latest Chrome stable (debian package) : 84.0.4147.89 (Build officiel) (64 bits). Chrome displays the same behavior, with the ever-growing memory usage being tied to the deezer tab (and not to the chrome parent process which remains stable). Notes : the memory gets freed when closing the tab. the memory loss is much quicker with “hifi” setting than with MP3 (128 or 320) setting. pausing playback has no effect (does not free the memory) neither has finishing or emptying the playlist with playback “naturally” coming to a halt. Thoughts : the memory leak may be tied to the improper implementation of some kind of client-side library or middleware (used for caching, unpacking or sound processing ?) that needs explicit (maybe undocumented ?) m
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.
