Boom 2 Memory Leak

peter_weigt

Hi, I've encountered the problem that whenever I use Boom 2 the whole day it will have at the end of the day a memory usage way above 1.6 GB, which is insane! Please fix or help how to fix the problem. I'm running Mac OSX 10.10.1 (14B25) on a MacBook Retina MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2013).

Thanks for your help!

Just started it 10 min (13.5 MB Memory usage) ago and it already used 95 MB.

The same problem is happening here.

- Snapshop: http://cl.ly/Zo80
- Around 100Mb
- Never
- Don't use audio effects
- up 14 days, 22:21, 2 users, load averages: 2.00 2.12 2.01

Hope that helps fix the problem, sometimes Boom 2 it's taking 2GB of memory, this is crazy!

After 3-4 hours from launch Boom 2 can take about 2 GB memory. To solve the problem, i have to reset the app every time. As i can see, the problem was mentioned in januray, so i think it's about time to solve it. Dont U think?

I'm having the same issue, after 2-3 hours my Boom 2 is taking about 2-3gb of memory as well. Any solution for this? Cause its really annoying to have to restart the app every 2 hours.

One of the solutions is have 16GB ram

Hey,

@Gabriel_IMBAst You had replied us on one of the comments (http://www.globaldelight.com/globaldelightforum/discussion/1788/please-fix-ram-boom-2-v1-1/p1) saying the issue was fixed. Are you facing the same issue again?

Also, try installing Boom 2 on the same Mac but on different user account and check whether you face the same issue.

Nice update for both Boom 2 and this website (except that twitter connection doesn't work it tries to send a mail to twitter)
I updated to the last version of Boom 2 (the day it went out) and still got leaks.

PS: I already sent this comment a week ago so I don't know if you have to approve or something but that's a bit annoying

Boom2 unfortunately still leaks
The website twitter login is broken it tells me that I have to reset my password for my first use but it has an error sending the mail because it tries to send it to twitter.

Hi, Boom 2 still leaks TODAY.

It got to 39.3 GB of memory on a long running mac, only using the equalizer, no special effects or tools:

I started it up again and it only took ~30MB of memory, took 5 minutes and took another snapshot, it's already at ~80MB

This has got to go...

Still leaking for me as well 19 months later and no response from GlobalDelight lately. Is this only affecting a few people? Boom 2 is unusable with this leak and I've switched back to Boom 1.
