When MacOS first opens MailMate looking in Activity Viewer>Memory, there are four process types/names that run, called:
* MailMate
* MailMate Graphics and Media
* MailMate Web Content
* MailMate Networking

There are appearances of the above process groups showing up for open windows showing up as: * about: (one for each of various windows you choose to show and message windows), about 20 in my case.

These use Real, VM, Shared, Private Memory allocations in *launchd* and other processes.

Total in my case its ~450MB of RAM. Since I have 32GB of RAM and my overall usage of App Memory including MM averages 16GB or less, I don’t feel an issue.

You may wish to share details on your system. Here’s mine (gathered by MailMate’s menu item, Help>Send Feedback). My system: MailMate/6058/282BCB28-893E-51E7-891E-F3272BC540D1 15.0.1/arm64/MacBookPro18,3/10

I saw something similar on 15.0 — MailMate ran out of application memory and I had to exit it. That was on my backup, i.e., older laptop, and it was catching up with old emails. On my new one, with 64G of RAM, it's taking 1.26GB of RAM real memory and 5.48GB of virtual memory, but I have almost 2M messages. I did not try to isolate it to a particular message.

Anybody else seeing this? - I’m on Sequoia 15.0.1. High water mark is around 150GB of VM - screenshot below. Sometimes this corrects itself after a few minutes. Sometimes it persists and my system becomes unresponsive to the point of needed a reboot.
