www.twitch.tv - see bug description #10343

Closed webcompat-bot closed 7 years ago

webcompat-bot commented 7 years ago

URL: https://www.twitch.tv

Browser / Version: Firefox 57.0 Operating System: Windows 10 Tested Another Browser: Yes

Problem type: Something else Description: Extreme memory leaks while watching a busy stream Steps to Reproduce: While watching a busy stream on Twitch.tv, I noticed that Firefox starts to use a lot of memory after a few minutes, ranging from 200MB (initially) to even 600MB~650MB tops.

This doesn't happen on Chrome, where the memory usage ranges between 250MB~350MB tops. The CPU usage is also higher in comparison (10~13% on Firefox vs 5%~10% on Chrome).

Steps to reproduce:

1) Open Twitch.tv (https://www.twitch.tv) 2) Go to a famous stream with a lot of viewers (a busy chat seems to exacerbate this problem) 3) Watch it for some minutes while also interacting with the page a little bit, like going from top to bottom to spawn the "mini video po-up" or going in and out of theather mode

Is this a memory leak problem? I didn't find any bug on bugzilla related to this issue.

Note: this happens both on v55 (stable) and v57 (beta).

This doesn't seem to be a Web compatibility issue but probably something to open on https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/
