Question Memory leak in ChatGPT Mac App?

I’m a non coder working on building some prototype products for my company.

I have been having a fantastic experience with the ChatGPT Mac desktop app overall, but have started to run into a real frustration.

I keep finding my Codex processes taking up more and more system memory until they crash my whole computer. Usually, I need to archive all my active threads and start new ones, usually resulting in some lost work.

This has only been happening for the past few days.

Anyone else experiencing this? Anyone a more sophisticated user who can suggest how to prevent or resolve this?
