I reported this to support but was told it wasn’t anything abnormal; am I the only one for who Barcelona has been taking much more memory than it used to? Just now from having the app open between 10am and 4pm, Sketch is now taking 32GB of memory. It used to almost never go higher than 10GB.
A week ago I saw it taking 50GB (at which point my computer becomes unusable so I have to restart Sketch). Again I never saw this happen prior to Barcelona.
Hello @Sam!
We’ve been discussing possible reasons behind this issue, since we’ve not seen other users reporting similar memory leaks (if someone else has experienced this, please tell us!). Therefore, we suspect this could be related to specifics on your end.
Let’s see your list of plugins. Could we have a screenshot (or set of screenshots if you have a long list) showing your list of installed plugins in Sketch > Settings > Plugins? If you don’t want to send them in public, you know you can send them through productsupport@sketch.com. We’ve seen how some plugins have created similar performance issues in the past. That way, we’ll try to replicate your environment in our tests and see if we can obtain consistent results to identify the problem.
In the meantime, we’ve been doing some tests with the Library you shared with us before and so far, there’s no clear outcome, but rest assured that we keep investigating. That list of plugins will helps for sure.
