Description

Description

Proxyman uses 2.5 GB of RAM after some days. Cleaning requests did nothing. After restarting the app, it uses 140 MB.

Image

I intercept 1 domain via SSL Proxy. I hide 8 domain paths via Block List. That's about it

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Use app for some days
  2. RAM usage increases a lot

Current Behavior

RAM usage increased

Expected Behavior

RAM usage should not be increased that much, or go down after cleaning requests

Environment

  • App version: 5.24.0 (52400)
  • macOS version: 15.6.1

Research direction

No source file, test, or entry point is named. Reproduce the report using macOS 15.6.1, app version 5.24.0, one SSL Proxy domain, and the listed Block List paths; compare memory growth before and after cleaning requests and restarting, with the issue done when prolonged use no longer causes the reported increase.
