Could you post the output of https://github.com/pixelb/ps_mem? That may be a little more useful than a screenshot of htop.
I do see memory usage reported that's about 100x smaller than that. Though even using multiple megabytes per applet may mean there's room for improvement.

Those are the results of ps_mem after a fresh start. Later today I'll paste the results of ps_mem after a couple of hours running, to see if there's a big difference.
I wonder what's causing this. Personally, i'm on latest commits and memory consumption seems reasonable

Those numbers look a bit high too, comparing to a recently started session on my system (with 3 monitors).
Looks like a memory leak somewhere.

Related recent issues:
Cosmic-applets version: 0.1.0~1731341110~22.04~09062c1
Specific applet that this is regarding (if applicable): all of them
Issue/Bug description: each applet is consuming 300 Mb of memory
Steps to reproduce: use htop, btop, or a similar program to check RAM usage of comic-applets
Expected behavior: their sizes should be ~100 times smaller.
Other notes: I am using Pop!_OS 22.04 LTS x86_64 and Linux kernel 6.9.3-76060903-generic
Are these release builds compiled with
-C prefer-dynamic
and-C strip=symbols
flags to reduce the binary size? Maybe that could help.
