Windows 11 Memory Usage

[Sabersix]

Pandora has been great but does it really need to be using over 1 gig of memory? I mean now adays it's not a super huge deal but for a music streaming app on a desktop seems way over board. I have had it open for several days.

My system specs:

Processor 11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-1165G7 @ 2.80GHz 2.80 GHz
Installed RAM 16.0 GB (15.7 GB usable)
System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor
Pen and touch Touch support with 10 touch points

Edition Windows 11 Pro
Version 23H2
Installed on ‎2/‎24/‎2024
OS build 22631.3880
Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.22700.1020.0

Hi there, @Sabersix. 👋

Thank you for visiting the Pandora Community and for providing these details about your system. I’ve passed along your feedback to our tech team regarding your experience with the desktop app.

In the meantime, we would recommend closing the app when you’re done with your listening session. We appreciate your patience during this process. 🎧

I've had similar issues where apps seemed to gobble up more resources than expected. One trick that helped me was checking if there were any updates for the app—sometimes, new versions optimize performance and fix memory leaks. Another thing you might try is restarting Pandora or even reinstalling it to clear out any bugs. I found some useful tips on ****  during a similar situation. The reviews there really helped me tweak my setup to run smoother. It might be worth a look for some more ideas.
