Takes a lot of memory and sometimes CPU.

Hyperterm is awesome but it takes a lot of memory. Hyper Helper uses 1Gb for 4 opened tabs.
Don't like to go back to iTerm2 👎
Is it me only or anyone else ?

e.g.

grep -R "b..t" * in a project directory.

iterm2 finished the grep in 10 sec. I needed to kill hyper after 3 min.

Memory was 6gb and never got collected.

Yes exactly. Ag command on vim that uses grep underneath neverends. El El mar, 24 de ene. de 2017 a las 14:02, Francis Lavoie < notifications@github.com> escribió:

Just to be clear, I didn't kill hyper (the application) but the grep process. I continued using hyper for a couple of hours, and it never reclaimed the memory.

Yes, same here. El El mar, 24 de ene. de 2017 a las 15:18, Francis Lavoie < notifications@github.com> escribió:

I made a test (a small program that prints 10000 lines, nothing special) and this are the results

Same here. Tried using ack and I couldn't even abort anymore with ctrl+ c.
Had to restart the terminal. This is recurring.

iTerm2 is able to do the same task without crashing.

I've recently had an issue on Win 10 with Hyper > Bash on Windows > Zsh > Oh-my-zsh (+ pure)
The 5 idle tabs (with git repos open) were eating 99% CPU.

My poor RAM :(

I regularly have this problem running webpack builds or other build processes. Often to the point where the entire app crashes completely and I have to force quit.

IF there's some specific information I can provide I shall fetch it.

@Stanzilla is there a particular reason this is closed? Can we provide more specific data to help resolve the problems people have?

[Stanzilla]

Mostly that it's outdated and stale and the canary version already has new versions of xterm (and soon electron) that should help with this

[Dayjo]

Great, thanks for the update.
