very often "Your system has run out of application memory"

24" iMac, M1, 16GB


Only 2 apps open:

Brave Browser, 26 tabs, dialog box says 450mb used

Finder, says 383mb used


Rebooted less than one hour ago, these are the only two apps opened after rebooting.


I get this FAR more often on my M1 machines than my Intel machines, and I'm not doing anything different.


Is there a fix for this?

iMac 24″, macOS 11.6

Sounds like a background process - or even one of those tabs in Brave - is out of control.


Launch Activity Monitor and see what's eating all your Memory.
