After recent update to version 3.7, I noticed that Telegram now using
lot of RAM. Apparently, there is a memory leak in media player if
hardware acceleration is on. Every time one starts a video, more RAM
consumed by Telegram app. Furthermore, every time one interact with a
timeline (just random clicking or clicking at the same timestamp) more
and more memory leaked. In a few seconds, one can boost Telegram RAM
usage up to 10Gb.
With hardware acceleration turned off everything is fine
Steps to reproduce
Use Windows
Turn on hardware acceleration in advanced settings
Play some video and click several times on the timeline
