Example App Views Memory Leak?

[ElrB]

Hi @ekazaev

I hope you are well. Having built my app's chat vc off the example app, I was checking if the chat vc was being deallocated after popping it. The result was yes, chat vc is always deallocated, but I realised some of the chat views remain in memory, cause the memory to always increase when opening the same chat. I have a few pics below from memory graph debugger.

I know it's not a big deal, but can you shed a light on it? Thanks.

I took the screenshot below after entering and dismissing chat view 3 times, which has 4 messages.

@ElrB Hi

Thank you for the issue.

It technically should not. But example app I mostly use for the experiments, so some memory issues may slip away from me. But the quick look doesnt show any problems.

How I checked it. Replace the setEditNotEdit method with:

    @objc
    private func setEditNotEdit() {
        let viewController = UIViewController()
        viewController.view.backgroundColor = .red
        navigationController?.viewControllers = [viewController]
    }

Start the example app. Hit "edit" button. When the view controller is replaced stop to check the Memory graph. I dont see any issues there. Only singletons are left in memory.

So I would suggest to check your code and find out what is holding those objects in the memory.
