Problems editing in flex pitch mode

Hi,

I'm having problems editing in flex pitch mode, in that the longer I edit in flex pitch mode, the more it starts to unnessarily eat up my RAM. This isn't because I'm doing complex editing, but just seems to be a side effect of working in flex pitch editing mode. Undos in particular tend to slow things up, and each time I undo I can see the RAM climbing up from 3GB to 14GB usage in the activity monitor, until it just becomes unresponsive (this happens over the course of a few minutes - not a long time). Is this happening to anyone else? Is this being worked on? Because as of right now, flex pitch just doesn't seem to be a feasible option if I can't edit in it.

Thanks.

Here's what's going on for me. https://vimeo.com/97634365

There's also a bug that when I press undo in the take folder while the playback is going, it loops a previous bit of audio which gets progressively louder and which can't be stopped until logic becomes responsive again. It takes less than 3 minutes to max out the RAM on my computer at which point the system overloads.

I have the same problem, especially when using the "undo" command. Any suggestions? Upgrades?

Wish I could help, but I haven't found any way to work with it; this bug kind of renders flex pitch useless. I really hope they address this in future updates.
