Leak memory

Hi, viblast team. I use viblast on 48.0.2564.82 Chrome

Viblast version

viblast|6.38.3b9fcd1a|Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/48.0.2564.82 Safari/537.36"

After start playing video memory constantly increasing for my tab with video. You can see it in chrome task manager (Shift + Esc). So after one hour of non-interrupring playing, memory increased by 200-300 Mb for this tab. Is this normal behaviour or some kind of issue?

Check my example

<head>

<script src="static/viblast-player-6.38/viblast.js"></script>

</head>


<body>

<video controls width="640"></video>

<script>

document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function(event) {

    console.log("DOM loaded");

    viblast(document.getElementsByTagName('video')[0]).setup({

     key: 'N8FjNTQ3NDdhZqZhNGI5NWU5ZTI=',

     stream: "//cdn3.viblast.com/streams/hls/airshow/playlist.m3u8"

    });

});

</script>

</body>

Best regards, Roman.

Hi Roman,


Thank you for the feedback. 

Yes, this is a normal behavior. The chrome browser (as all the other modern browsers) manages internally the video buffer memory. It is up to the browser when the buffer memory should be freed. We have a dedicated scenario for memory usage in our test system to perform 24 hours live stream tests and do believe this behavior is not an issue.


Best regards,

Stefan
