Massive memory leak in v26.2

Hey all, 

 

I recently upgrade from PS2020 to PS25 and aside from ui changes, I've had a shockingly bad memory leak issue crop up. Had a small psd open, 1000x1000, had 6 layers, and have ai features turned off. When i left my computer for the evening, i was using around 10gb of RAM of my total 64GB. When i woke up, i noticed my computer really chugging, which concerned me because it is a beast. Task manager showed i was using an 100% memory. I immediately closed chrome, nothing was released to free up ram, didn't see photoshop explicitly showing high memory usage, so didn't think about it at first. I started closing things down one by one based on the RAM usage in task manager, and nothing worked until i closed photoshop. That immediately released it.

 

Won't be leaving docs open over night any time soon, but would be nice to have this fixed as i don't like resetting up my work space every day. Also generally just want to go back to PS2020 haha. 

Anyways, system specs in case it helps:

Photoshop ver 26.2 (2025)

Windows OS11 home 64bit (10.0.26100)

I9-14900kf

ASUS ROG STRIX Z790-E

Nvidia 4090 Liquid Suprim, 24GB

64 GB DDR5 RAM

 

Thanks!

Also getting memory leak on PS 26.3 (MacOS 15.3).

 

Memory usage keeps increasing over time even with documents closed but photoshop open. Usage builds up until it uses all system memory and requires a force quit. Even with memory usage capped in PS prefernces.
