Memory Leak in 5.8.4.5? (Even after revert to 5.7.6.8?)

Hello all -

Looking for any insight/ideas about what seems to be a pretty fast and substantial memory leak in 5.8.4.5 since I upgraded.

I'm running
- Fully dedicated Intel i7
- 32GB RAM (originally 16GB)
- 10 4-5K cameras
- CodeProject 2.5.1 (originally 2.3.4)
- with YOLOv8 (although I've used YOLOv5 6.2 interchangeably as well)

Before I tried the 5.8 upgrade, BI would run around 2GB RAM. After 5.8 upgrade, it started creeping up intra-day to 12+GB. I added more RAM (not a bad idea in general) but it just continues to creep up.

Note that I downgraded to 5.7.6.8... BUT... it seems something is left behind/stuck that is still sucking up RAM / leaking.

Only solution so far has been restarting the BI Service (or restarting the box) which knocks it back down to <2GB RAM altho it gets back to leaking very quickly. Note that it does not seem related to CodeProject.

Appreciate any ideas. Thanks.

Check if you have audio enabled for any cams that don’t have audio.

Wild guess but recently there have been a lot of issues re a recent change for audio watchdog.
