    <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi &lt;a href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1596857"&gt;@hgz&lt;/a&gt;, sorry to jump in here!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Can you access your &lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/account/general" target="_blank"&gt;account settings&lt;/A&gt;, and turn Early releases off? After that, install one of the &lt;A href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-desktop-client-builds/Stable-Build-162-4-5419/td-p/640086" target="_blank"&gt;stable&lt;/A&gt; builds of the Dropbox application, and let me know if the behavior remains the same.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I've just installed my first M1 iMAC and entered the Dropbox beta program.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I need to add that I run an Intel base MB Pro in parallel and I've entered the beta program there as well.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;So far everything went fine, Dropbox runs Apple nativ and functionality is as expected (well known from the past).&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Checking memory usage on the M1 Mac made me wondering. 7,4GByte!!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;After rebooting the machine it came down to 750Mbyte but nearly a day later its up again to 1,5Gbyte and is constantly increasing.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;On the Intel MB Pro, everything fine and smooth. Memory consumption around 700Mbyte &amp;amp; constant.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Does anyone experience similar memory issues on M1 MAC's?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hey &lt;a href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1596857"&gt;@hgz&lt;/a&gt;, sorry to hear about this and thanks for your detailed report.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Just to make sure we're on the same page, can you clarify the exact OS version of your computer and the version and status of the desktop app as shown in your &lt;A href="https://help.dropbox.com/installs/system-tray-menu-bar" target="_blank"&gt;menu bar&lt;/A&gt;?&lt;/P&gt;

      <description>&lt;P&gt;@hgz How did it go for you so far? I am currently getting 31GB+ Dropbox memory usage on a brand new Mac Studio Ultra 64GB ram. It's forcing it to use 4.5GB disk cache, wearing my SSD... Not to mention the CPU 100%. It is uploading a ton of files at the moment, but still...&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1518382"&gt;@goBiGGER&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;unfortunately my memory (leak) issue still exists and I need to kill &amp;amp; restart the Dropbox process every 3 days.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Dropbox support was very kind and proactive so far and we ran through all possible user actions like re-indexing, checking security settings on the Dropbox folder (btw Apple Silicon machines need full access) and so on. As said, unfortunately the issue still exists and as far as I understood support, they will forward it now to engineering. I would assume that your experiences will help engineering identifying the root cause as well.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;KR&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Hans-Georg&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;did the same, restarted and that got it down to 2.9GB at the moment. But I suspect if I leave it on another week or two it will get large again... A memory leak by the looks of it...&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Issue was resolved.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Many thx to the Dropbox support team!&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Root cause:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;- a faulty,&amp;nbsp; external USB hard-disc which was configured for a Dropbox backup. Actually, this drive seemed to work properly but unmount/mounted themself periodically.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I don't have a faulty external drive. The memory leak is real, not a hardware issue, it's a coding issue. Currently using 9GB ram.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Thanks for the screenshot &lt;SPAN style="background: var(--ck-color-mention-background); color: var(--ck-color-mention-text);"&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1518382"&gt;@goBiGGER&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Could you try the latest, stable version of the app from &lt;A href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-desktop-client-builds/Stable-Build-167-4-4719/td-p/657572" target="_blank"&gt;this page&lt;/A&gt; and let me know if this persists?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <title>Dropbox terrifying memory usage on macOS.</title>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I noticed that the DropboxFileProvider on my Mac is using over 20GB of memory.&amp;nbsp;It is the same on my several Macs.&amp;nbsp;These Macs all use Apple Silicon chips and run the latest macOS (Sonoma 14.0), with at least 16GB of physical memory.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="ZeroClover_0-1698341247849.png" style="width: 800px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/41642i8F9D6B3BC6F21AB1/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;amp;px=999" role="button" title="ZeroClover_0-1698341247849.png" alt="ZeroClover_0-1698341247849.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;This also leads to high memory pressure on my macOS even when no other applications are running.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Is this expected behavior? Is there any way to reduce Dropbox's memory usage?&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Sorry to hear about this, &lt;SPAN style="background: var(--ck-color-mention-background); color: var(--ck-color-mention-text);"&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/570489"&gt;@ZeroClover&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Can you take a look at &lt;A href="https://help.dropbox.com/installs/high-cpu-usage" target="_blank"&gt;this article&lt;/A&gt; with all the possible reasons this might be happening and let me know if it helps?&lt;/P&gt;</description>
