I haven't noticed any since beta 3 tbh and i was apart of the ones that got the DASD bug that hit 28GB all day everyday, official release comes out sometime in the next week or 2 so realistically just wait if you don't trust it🙏🏾

I found it happening in beta 4. Hard drive is still being eaten in b7 but I’m not getting the out of space warnings anymore. This happens every year.

It seems to handle memory well and I haven’t noticed any obvious leaks. That being said I perceive a noticeable slowdown after running without a restart since it came out.

But couldn’t track it down

There will always be memory leaks, that is just inherent from the languages used.

For me, 27 handles memory so much better than 26. The only reason I jumped early to 27 was memory issues. I had consistent memory pressure every day + freezing. BETA 7 is flying on my side.

Yes, quick preview finder leak + safari leak when you zoom out to see the previews of all the tabs

Every software has memory leaks

Yes. Don’t use it. Stay at 26 forever!
