    The latest reason: ever since the last update of qt5 packages (from a few hours ago), qbittorrent uses this much RAM for just opening it without downloading anything. If I set something to download, it goes nuts and tries to fill the rest of my RAM, up to 32 GB.

    So, thank you for reminding me the calmness of having a GTK3 torrent client.

      Don't see what this has to do with Qt - you should ask the QBittoreent folks what is going wrong.

        @Valso

        Just because qBittorrent might have bugs and/or is not perfectly optimized, it doesn't mean that the whole Qt framework is bad...
        So when you can't code properly and produce memory leak and bugs, does it mean C++ is a bullsh*t programming languague?!


        If debugging is the process of removing software bugs, then programming must be the process of putting them in.

          @Valso 10,6GB when idle? There is something seriously off with qBittorent. As such shouldnt be reported here, because, as @Christian-Ehrlicher noted, this has nothing to do with Qt itself.
