Hey, thanks for the detailed report.
This looks like a memory leak during long chat sessions. To better track down the cause, I need a couple things:
- Cursor version: Cursor > About Cursor > Copy
- Process Explorer:
Cmd + Shift + P> “Developer: Open Process Explorer” Which process is using the most memory (extensionHost, renderer, ptyHost?)
Workarounds for now:
- Start a new chat from time to time instead of continuing a very long one
- Restart Cursor every few hours if you’re doing heavy work
- Try disabling extensions (
cursor --disable-extensions) to check if an extension is the cause
The Process Explorer details will help narrow down where the leak is.
