QWebEngineView taking up all the RAM without sight of cleaning it
-
Hello Qt community,
since last wednesday i am having some problems with QWebEngineView. I went from QWebView to EngineView because it is said to be better and more customisable etc. (dont wanna start an argument here about these two)
The problem:
simply dinamicaly allocated QWebEngineView is shown using .show() and a webpage is loaded with .load(QUrl("http://google.com))
when it loads it takes around 120MB of RAM is a lot, but i could live with that if it was the end of it.
Then after the page is loaded i click feel lucky(on google search) just to try and see if browsing works nicely. After it loads and i am just
browsing the page, without clicking ANYTHING the RAM starts to skyrocket to 1.5GB climbing until it stops when my RAM is totally full.Then i tried and created a new project, with nothing else only QWebEngineView and loading google and doing the same thing. Same problem still occurs.
Any suggestions?

Hi and welcome to devnet,
If you can reproduce this easily with a minimal compilable example, you should go to the bug report system to see if it's something known. If not please consider opening a new report providing that example and the guidelines to trigger the bug.
