Since downloading Monterey I receive repeated messages "your system has run out of application memory". This is only occurred since downloading Monterey. When examining activity monitor pages seems to be the main culprit using up 18 GB and more! Is this evidence of a memory leak for Pages with Monterey os? Restart makes no difference.
iMac 24″, macOS 12.0
"If you made changes to customize your mouse pointer and specifically the color choice—restore the defaults and compare your results."
@leroydouglas nailed it here for my scenario. I had modified the pointer color in accessibility settings. Once reset, the memory leak has stopped.
note: I was able to keep the existing larger sized cursor
Deuce33,
What other issues have you have besides the easy to manage memory leak?
Zarathu
Besides FaceTime no longer working now on the iMac after installing Monterey either?
How old is your iMac?
5K 27-inch from last year, 2020.
"Back to black" solved my problem as well.
What a weird OS bug this one is: a colored cursor causes memory leaks in multiple apps???
I had the same issue and looks liked this solved it too 😂
You should be running 12.2 by now ... did that fix the issue for you?
Monterey; Pages Memory Leak?
