Does it maybe only leak memory when the workstation is locked? ]]> RE: Memory Leak with video in browser (version 8.0 beta 2) https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/memory-leak-with-video-in-browser-version-80-beta-2/?ID=682e1d92-9046-4cea-998a-fb2ac735e1e7#10 Tue, 26 Jan 2016 19:16:46 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/memory-leak-with-video-in-browser-version-80-beta-2/?ID=682e1d92-9046-4cea-998a-fb2ac735e1e7#10 DisplayFusion Yes, sometimes it doesn't leak.
Well, I guess I should mention that I'm not the only one who is using PC.
For example, my mother using PC, but as far as I know she mostly using IE (11) and AverMedia card application.
Today I came home and Display Fusion was using 2GB RAM (no icons in tray), I restarted DF again and now it is using about 60MB for about 3 hours, while I have many opened apps (attached troubleshooting just in case). ]]> RE: Memory Leak with video in browser (version 8.0 beta 2) https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/memory-leak-with-video-in-browser-version-80-beta-2/?ID=682e1d92-9046-4cea-998a-fb2ac735e1e7#9 Tue, 26 Jan 2016 18:50:06 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/memory-leak-with-video-in-browser-version-80-beta-2/?ID=682e1d92-9046-4cea-998a-fb2ac735e1e7#9 DisplayFusion Thanks! So there are times where the memory doesn't leak at all? Is there any difference in what you're doing on the computer between when it leaks and doesn't leak? I've tested with watching videos in Chrome. I'm going to also test Firefox now as well. ]]> RE: Memory Leak with video in browser (version 8.0 beta 2) https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/memory-leak-with-video-in-browser-version-80-beta-2/?ID=682e1d92-9046-4cea-998a-fb2ac735e1e7#8 Sat, 23 Jan 2016 08:49:02 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/memory-leak-with-video-in-browser-version-80-beta-2/?ID=682e1d92-9046-4cea-998a-fb2ac735e1e7#8 DisplayFusion Attached troubleshooting log when DisplayFusion was using about 60 MB of memory without increase ]]> RE: Memory Leak with video in browser (version 8.0 beta 2) https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/memory-leak-with-video-in-browser-version-80-beta-2/?ID=682e1d92-9046-4cea-998a-fb2ac735e1e7#7 Thu, 21 Jan 2016 19:19:51 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/memory-leak-with-video-in-browser-version-80-beta-2/?ID=682e1d92-9046-4cea-998a-fb2ac735e1e7#7 DisplayFusion I've just setup YandexDisk on a test machine here, so we'll see if it makes any difference at all :) ]]> RE: Memory Leak with video in browser (version 8.0 beta 2) https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/memory-leak-with-video-in-browser-version-80-beta-2/?ID=682e1d92-9046-4cea-998a-fb2ac735e1e7#6 Wed, 20 Jan 2016 07:17:15 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/memory-leak-with-video-in-browser-version-80-beta-2/?ID=682e1d92-9046-4cea-998a-fb2ac735e1e7#6 DisplayFusion Thanks, Keith!

Not sure if YandexDisk is a problem. Will try to make troubleshooting report while this problem is not appearing, so we could compare running apps. Maybe it will help ]]> RE: Memory Leak with video in browser (version 8.0 beta 2) https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/memory-leak-with-video-in-browser-version-80-beta-2/?ID=682e1d92-9046-4cea-998a-fb2ac735e1e7#5 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 20:52:37 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/memory-leak-with-video-in-browser-version-80-beta-2/?ID=682e1d92-9046-4cea-998a-fb2ac735e1e7#5 DisplayFusion Thanks! I'm wondering if this has something to do with the YandexDisk application loading it's DLL into DisplayFusion. I've run into similar trouble with ownCloud, which has a similar setup.

I'll do some testing with this to see what I can find out. ]]> RE: Memory Leak with video in browser (version 8.0 beta 2) https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/memory-leak-with-video-in-browser-version-80-beta-2/?ID=682e1d92-9046-4cea-998a-fb2ac735e1e7#4 Sun, 17 Jan 2016 19:18:48 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/memory-leak-with-video-in-browser-version-80-beta-2/?ID=682e1d92-9046-4cea-998a-fb2ac735e1e7#4 DisplayFusion Settings aren't opening on 2GB memory usage, but I caught it on 1GB memory usage.

I'm having memory leak problem starting from version 7.3.0. Update to beta version didn't resolve this issue.
When I have video playing in browser (Firefox) with Flash or HTML5 player (mostly streams), memory usage is starting to increase rapidly with 0.5 to 2 MB per second. When memory usage is up to 2 GB, icons on second monitor disappear and everything becomes laggy.
Before branch 7.3 this problem wasn't happening.
Operating system - Windows 7 Ultimate. ]]>
