Hi everyone — quick update and an ask…
The good news: we’ve found a significant memory leak that is exacerbated by
maintenance. The issue compounds any time there are modifications to anything
in your library, so updating metadata is a significant trigger of the problem.
The not great news: we hoped to include changes as part of the next production
release, however this is a significant change in the heart of the system.
We’re taking care to make sure we don’t make things worse in trying to make
them better.
The ask: Due to the way the issue manifests, it would be super helpful to get
real-world libraries and play histories from users specifically experiencing
the performance degradation. If you’re willing to volunteer to share your DB
with us, let us know here on this thread and tech support will reach out to
coordinate with you on how to go about it.
Though I can’t say with certainty, it is possible that this is the key issue
degrading Roon’s performance over time and through the maintenance window.
We’d really appreciate your help in being able to test against your libraries
to make sure we’ve got it.
