Given the following set of circumstances, beta (3047) and dev (3052) accumulates exceptional amounts of VIRT space (as seen in top’s VIRT) column:
-
Have a project open.
-
Have a folder in the project.
-
Have the sidebar open.
-
Outside of ST3, run a build in the folder every second.
I have observed the leak with something as simple aswhile true; do date > foo.txt; sleep 1; rm foo.txt; done
Interestingly enough, it does not happen if the sleep is omitted.
This should show the VIRT figure increase by several megs at a time. As some trivia, when the process eventually reaches 256 gigabytes, it stops responding and is eventually terminated, so it has some bothersome side effects for long-running sessions.
