Comment (by thaflo):

Hi leavengood,

I attached two screenshots.
I streamed http://stream-uk1.radioparadise.com/aac-320
I did absolutely nothing else then listening between the first and the
last minute.

After closing MediaPlayer the RAM usage was about 570 MB.

Greets,
Florian

Replying to [comment:6 leavengood]:

I have added a feature to our debug memory allocator to print

allocations periodically. I have run MediaPlayer against the 1980s music
stream at http://23.92.61.218:9002/ while using this debug feature,
printing out the number of allocations and the allocated bytes every 5
seconds. I ran it for quite a while and got the attached output. I have
seen similar behavior from the command-line media_client against the same
stream.

The summary of this data is that memory starts off at 20 MB or so, then

drops to 18, fairly quickly increases to 26, then drops to 16 and then
quite slowly increases again to 26 before again dropping to 16 MB. So I
feel like something has fixed this issue since it was logged.

Of course in my opinion their should not be all this allocation

constantly, but the fact that it builds up, then drops, shows that it
isn't leaking forever.

I also just tried the naxi128 stream from smallstepforman and it is also

working now (yay Russian music!)

I can try other streams but I feel like we can probably close this

issue.

If the OP is still around, could you try testing again with the latest

nightly?
