Chromium\Chrome Memory Exhausted Ram (pc | raspberry)

[Luca Bleve]

Hi, I'm developing a web app on a raspberry and found a mistake in managing chromium \ chrome memory which in my opinion if not fixed in the code is impossible to solve.

I claim that I did several tests on both chrome and chrome PCs with the same result. I used the following script to call every 500ms from an api cgi a jpg image.

<img src="<?php echo $this->$vendor->getLink($cam, TypeLink::JPG); ?>" onload='setTimeout(function() {src = src.substring(0, (src.lastIndexOf("t=")+2))+(new Date()).getTime()}, 500)' onerror='setTimeout(function() {src = src.substring(0, (src.lastIndexOf("t=")+2))+(new Date()).getTime()}, 500)' alt=''/> >

I let her cycle a whole night and the result was crash of the chromium tab. I have investigated I saw that chromium created the cache of every single image having t = random so on apache i disable caching, i also tried cache killer but the tab memory continues to increase.
Among the various solutions I tried to stem the problem through linux, so I used cgroup by limiting the maximum 400 mb of memory chromium process, having only 1gb on raspberry available. The result, sporadic crashes of the tab even with more than 200mb of free rams within the limit of 400mb.

There is a flag to set a maximum usable chrome kernel limit ? I have come to 500mb with 1 tab only for a jpg motion......

Thanks

If you can provide a URL that reproduces the issue, that would help narrowing it down.

You can search crbug.com for an existing issue and star it. If you cannot find one, file a new issue using the "New issue" link on the same page.

Please, do not add a "+1" or "Me too" or "Confirmed" (or similar) comment. It just wastes the time of Chrome engineers and sends unnecessary e-mails to all of the people who starred the issue.

You can reply with a link to the found or created issue and might get triaged (and fixed) faster.

Thank you.
