Memory usage

[botiapa]

Thanks for the application! Great work, however I've been experiencing huge memory usage while using it.

I set the background to a 300KB large gif, but oguri uses more than 3GB of memory. I understand that you cache the frames, but I believe this is a bit too much. I'm using arch linux, on wayfire.

Can you link to the image and post your display resolutions?

I also did fix a memory leak in the latest commit if you haven't rebuilt lately.

Yeah sure, I'm using the following picture: https://i.imgur.com/btW1Ict.gif

And I'm using the latest commit, installed via the aur. My resolution: 1920x1080

I'm using a timed wallpaper with combined size of 18mb and oguri uses around 140mb.

Same here, oguri takes around 250MB of memory for an "animated" wallpaper of 8 pictures accounting for 41MB. I just built it from the repo and it behaves the same.

For me, with pixelart takes up to 4gb+ (latest version), doesn't matter which filter I'm using...

Without oguri, river + browser takes 1gb, when oguri is opened then memory usage jump up to 5,5gb
