High RAM usage in the background
planned
Gabriel Rosas (Shato)
I have been using voicemod for years and voicemod v3 for about a month. I have now noticed that Voicemod's Qt QtWebEngineProcess slowly starts building up RAM usage over the day, it starts at a couple of MB and it ramped up to over 5gb in the course of 24hrs, as soon I closed voicemod, this process ram usage went to 0, and after opening it again it started going up again.

This is a memory leak. They need to update their Qt Framework, this is a known issue since last year. I really enjoy using the App but it is getting in the way of everything. Not everybody has 128gb of RAM.

It also fairly constantly eats up 1GB of RAM through the "QtWebEngine internal process" when automatically launched after Windows 11 24H2 boot. Exiting & re-launching the program help, but the problem isn't truly gone unless the app is exited from system tray.
Voicemod V2 doesn't have this problem, and Voicemod previous to 2026 didn't have this problem for me either.

Support, are you aware of what causes the memory leak?

Sidra Arif Game Nyantuy Thank you for sharing it! We're unfortunately aware of this QT RAM consumption and we've been working around it for the last weeks; we hope to have solution
as soon as possible

QtWebEngine internal process has been eating up all of my ram. Just today when I woke up my computer I couldn't open any apps because the program was taking 8 gigs of ram.

I swear there needs to be a form of garbage collection. it never use to be this bad (this is compared to a million tabs open on edge lol). Sucks more that I really don't want to leave voicemod for something else. I have loved this thing for years and have been a pro user for idk how long.

Memory leak is getting pretty bad.
Currently eating up 15gb out of my 64gb of ram.
Just started using voicemod a lot more frequently and noticed how bad this leak has gotten with a few of my games crashing over the past week.

Started happening in the last update for me as well in the last update (3.15.32?) ram usage from QtWebEngine internal process starts at about 80mb but then starts rising, staying stable at up to 2mb per second increase. Woke up this morning after leaving my pc on overnight with the software using over 9GB OF RAM out of my 16Gb D: Had to restart my computer, even after force closing it because of how slow it became. I have roblox, discord, medal and opera gx open btw, the first 2 use the voicemod mic. As of writing this though, restarted and it sudden't has stopped increasing... I've already gotten annoyed at other bugs (mainly sound system issues), this one the most cus roblox takes enough of my resources already but this I don't understand why is suddenly works again for now at least (or increasing about 30kb a sec instead now). Are there fixes?
