Howdy,
I’m trying to understand the overall community use of FIGMA and the memory use on your machines.
My MacBook pro has 16GB of Ram and Figma constantly uses around 9 to 12GB.
I understand that the more tabs I have the more memory it will use but is there anything that has changed under the hood that is making it use more and more memory?
Are we keeping those tabs in cache for reactivity when swapping tabs? Would it be possible to only cater for 1 or 2 tabs? and need a reload of the file when idle for X minutes?
As much as I love FIGMA I would die if I had to change tool because of performance issues…
- if I have 2-3 tabs on FIGMA app open
- 1-2 tabs in Miro app
- 1 google meet on Brave
Then my mac is fuming… anyone in the same situation?
Could you share your average/rough memory use? How many tabs open? Other software you use at the same time? Tips on how to keep the machine running smooth?
