Since updating to Safari 13.0, I'm beginning to receive occasional warnings "this webpage is using significant amounts of memory" while using the SiriusXM web-page player. This warning causes the player to stop.
Anyone else experiencing this issue?
Hello OlderMan2,
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you're having trouble with the SiriusXM webpage using memory on your Mac and causing it to quit playing. I'd be happy to provide information that may help.
To start, take a look at How to use Activity Monitor on your Mac. Activity Monitor shows the processes that are running on your Mac, so you can manage them and see how they affect your Mac's activity and performance.
You may also want to try starting up your Mac in safe mode to further isolate the issue: Use safe mode to isolate issues with your Mac.
Finally, take a look at the steps here, and give those a try: If Safari doesn't load a page or webpage items are missing.
Take care.
Thank you for the quick reply Joseph_S.
I checked Activity Monitor and yes, https://player.siriusxm.com is confiscating memory like mad. (I'm glad my "i7" has 32GB to play with.)
So, my point is I've been using various versions of Safari for the last several years to run the above web-player, and have never before been alerted to this, or any, memory issue.
Seems a bit suspicious to me that within fifteen minutes after updating to Safari 13.1, I'm receiving high-memory usage alerts with a tried and true web-app.
Kind of makes me think Safari 13.1 has a "hoarding" problem with streaming data.
In light of the above, do you have other ideas?
Best regards,
OM2
