Extreme memory usage on Sublime Text 3 (3126) OS X 10.12.6

#1

Sublime Text 3, is just sitting idle, I have no packages except package manager installed. I have several files opened. Memory usage of ST3 comes close to 60 gigs. Many other running programs become unresponsive and I need to force quit sublime to be able to make them work. A while after launching ST3 again I see that memory usage is going up in the rate of 500 megabytes every 10-20 seconds or so.

hmm, looks to me like

but that shouldn’t happen with only the (unmodified) shipped packages installed… are you in a clean/reverted state or do you have something in your User package that could be causing this somehow?

are you able to share your ST session file so we can check if we get the same situation on our machines? does it still happen on newer builds of ST?

Please also provide the list of installed packages.

“I have no packages except package manager installed.”

Also, after deleting the data folder sublime behaves as normal again.
