Latest Emby Update - RAM usage creep - Anyone else seen it ? Docker/Linux.

[vaise 346]

I close my MacBook down when im not using it, so the laptop is asleep I guess.

I generally ALWAYS have an emby tab open when I am using the MacBook.

Just on the admin page.

The Dashboard web pages where the Now Playing information shows, have websocket connections to the server which have data sent to them whilst there are playback sessions. We discovered that on Windows if the browser tab is suspended - eg when the browser detects it is not in focus and not current active tab, then the feeds from the server buffer up leading to memory usage increase over time.

If you do normally have a dashboard tab open, see if closing that browser tab before the machine gets put to sleep makes a difference

I never seen anything like that before holy smokes, I just checked mine and not using much of anything thankfully.

I am not closing the emby management tab when not in use.

I will report back.

At least the system is recovering and I don't get harassed by users.  I am going to lower the emby page not responding check to 3 minutes.

Seems when the memory issue happens, it blows from 12 to 16 and dies in the same 5 minutes.

OK - Reporting back.

I have stopped my normal process of having a management tab open in my safari browser all the time.

That was Tuesday morning.  Its now Thursday morning and under 4GB ram usage.

I suspect its still early days yet, but I will report back next week.

I assume if this is the issue, it will be fixed in a later release ?
