Thank you for the Activity Monitor image above
But what else is running in Activity Monitor
What appears in your image is only a snap shot of some running Applications /Services
Suggest using Activity Monitor >> View >> View ALL Processes
Example, am running Safari ( NO additional Tabs ) , Notes, Mail and Activity Monitor
Thank you for the above
Often times - the issue maybe not actually be a single process alone but a combination of Processes
From what is presented, there are 7 instances of Google Chrome and associated process running including the
" Renderer " and " Helper " processes
If you look at the Memory Used in each of the above mentioned processes it ranges from the low of 426 MB and gets t progressively greater in each other process.
Then there is the question of the number of Open Tabs in your Browser, they can also affect Memory Usage.
Seems the solution maybe:
1 - use a less Memory intensive Browser like Google Chrome
2- Limit the number of instances of Google Chrome from running
3 - Limit the number of Open Tab in Chrome
For everyone who faced the same issue.
My setup is MacBook Pro M1 connect to 32" Dell Monitor with DDPM software.
I can figure out the cause of the high memory consumption is the DDPM.
So, I recommend to uninstall the DDPM until their fix it.
Here is my activity monitor's screen shot
Thanks for the advices. I use Chrome as a main browsers since many years ago. So, I will try to limit the instances or number of open tabs. Hope it help.
Thank you.
Welcome
Good work there 👍
