Memory leak in Linux flatpak client

Anki Help
1

Hi,

I am using the Linux flatpak version of Anki. I don’t have any add-ons installed. There seems to be a memory leak. I believe it to be triggered by the mathjax editor. When the mathjax block editor is open, memory usage steadily climbs even if no text is being inputted.

Operating System: Fedora Linux 43
KDE Plasma Version: 6.5.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.22.0
Qt Version: 6.10.1
Kernel Version: 6.18.4-200.fc43.x86_64 (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland
Processors: 20 × Intel® Core™ i5-14600KF
Memory: 32 GiB of RAM (31.1 GiB usable)
Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT
Manufacturer: Micro-Star International Co., Ltd.
Product Name: MS-7D99
System Version: 1.0

I have screencasts showing the usage clearly but can’t add attachments or include links.

Have you reported it to the folks who publish that version?

I have tried to reproduce like this:

  1. Open add cards dialog.
  2. Open the mathjax block dialog.
  3. Wait.

I had no memory leak with the anki from the official website (using debian trixie with gnome, wayland). So either the steps to reproduce are different or it is a flatpak issue.

No. Anki publishes this version: Anki - powerful, intelligent flashcards .
