[ST4] Slowly leaking non-paged memory?

#1

Build 4102
Windows 10 x64

It seems to be leaking 2-8KB non-paged memory per second. It probably depends on the number of files open or something.

It happens both on my home pc and at work. At home it increases with about 2-3KB per second and at work it’s more like 6-8KB per second.

I don’t have any interesting plugins installed. Not sure how I can easily get a list of those. I think the only common ones used at home and at work are CaseConversion and CMake.

If you need more information, please let me know how I can help.

You should start sublime in safe mode and see if this problem occurs.

Thanks that’s neat. It still happens. A bit less consistent and a bit slower, but it’s still increasing gradually. It might also be slower because I have less projects opened. It seems to make bigger jumps at the moment when I open projects and folders. I can’t really tell what’s going on, maybe it’s not closing files or something?

It’s also using way more non-paged memory than any other process. I opened and closed some projects for a bit here and now it’s at 14MB while other processes such as Firefox and Explorer only use 200-300kB (per process).

I left it running the rest of the day and ‘overnight’ (pc goes into sleep/hibernate at night) and the non-paged memory usage is now at 26MB according to the task manager details tab.
