Figma Helper (Renderer) is using excessive memory, why?

@Alina_Brender Really sorry to hear that you’ve gotten this issue.
It’s important to recognize that, regardless of added memory to your physical machine, Figma’s functionality is capped at 2GB due to WASM web browser limitations. This applies even to the Figma “native” app, as it essentially operates within a web browser framework.
The Figma team can uncap it to a maximum of 4GB… for me, it didn’t do any wonders unfortunately.

From my experience, it’s unlikely that Figma support will offer any good solution in this scenario.

Another challenging aspect is that you probable need to overhaul your entire design system, a process that is both time-intensive and complex. Because that is how you actually solve this issue.

A practical approach to manage complexity and memory demands might be the adoption of “Slot components” in your design. For guidance, these videos could be useful:

Currently, I’m not under any contract, so I’m available for a mentor session. I’d be glad to examine your issue in a video call and provide assistance. However, I must be upfront about the complexity of this situation and the limited documentation available, so I can’t guarantee a definitive solution.
