Program memory usage issues #66

Closed MilkGolium closed 2 months ago

MilkGolium commented 2 months ago

Hi, I was trying to record something on Haiku R1/Beta2 but ran into some issues. The program's memory usage kept increasing while recording, until it ran out of memory, using swap space and causing system freezes.

Another issue was that after finishing recording and encoding, the memory was not automatically released, and I had to exit the program to do so.

Thanks!

Is it really Beta/2? I recall a memory leak in haiku mediakit which was fixed at some point. Might be that one (or a new one if you meant beta/4)

Ok, I found the leak in BeScreenCapture. It's a regression. Fixing now.

Thanks for the report! It's fixed in the new release (2.9.1) which should be merged soon in Haikuports.

Oh, I'm so sorry, it's beta4, I wrote it wrong.

No worries it was my fault in the end 😅
