      Vlad Where do I start from a clean profile?

      • Vlad replied to this.

          i've had this same issue, sometimes hitting 2-3 GB of ram being used by various orion processes.

            Blopolot You can go to File -> Profiles -> New Profile to create a new profile (default settings, no extensions).. Then show us how to reproduce high RAM usage (bonus points if you can show that in the same circumstances Safari uses radically less RAM)

                Vlad I started with a clean profile but it only reached 400mb, I'm not sure what is causing the issue. Also safari was only 100mb off on the same website.

                Edit: back on the default profile, it is 1.96GB from being on a single website.

                    Vlad I am sorry, I forgor about this. I deleted my extensions and it solved the problem. I deleted my two extensions.

                    edit: it only reaches around 400mb

                        Merged 9 posts from RAM usage is extremely high.

                          THis isn't a bug report, but the category that i felt it fit best in. I want to see if anyone else is experiencing similar things

                            If possible, can anyone test this on their device and post the results?

                                                  Hi All

                                                  We had a new release today that addreessed a known memory leak.

                                                  Please let us know here if you experience an out of ordinary memory usage with Orion.

                                                  Out of ordinary usage means usage that is very different than Safari in similar cicrumstances (same open tabs, installed extensions etc).

                                                  If someone can provide exact steps how to reproduce a memory leak issue we can address it in the next update.

                                                  Vlad changed the title to High memory usage .
