OBS uses almost 300gb after a couple hours

I'm using OBS to stream to Twitch. For the past few weeks, when I reach about 3 hours, the Force Quit Applications window will pop up and tell me that OBS is taking about ~300gb of space. The only plug-in I use is the websocket plugin. I have completely uninstalled OBS and erased Library data. Reinstalled both OBS and the websocket plugin, restored just my scenes, and the error continues.

I just opened OBS left it opened without streaming, I noticed that the application memory is just climbing at about 90gb per hour. Here is the log for this test. https://obsproject.com/logs/AXUqXQT7arJIKOZq

I'm not sure what to do exactly. I have tried refreshing the streamlabs alert browser source. I have disabled the chroma key on the camera. I have switched scenes to see if that works... but nothing. The application's memory keeps climbing.

Any ideas how I could fix this?
 
It's a memory leak, try to pinpoint exactly where that memory leak is coming from by using the process of elimination. Then send a bug report to OBS. That's the only way to fix it!

I'm working on this same exact problem too! I get from 2GB -> 100GB in about 45 minutes. I'm going to isolate each source and even each obs filter, and see which ones are causing it.
 
Are you using Streamlabs OBS? or OBS Project? If you are are using Streamlabs OBS, that is a fork from the software from this site, and you should go to Streamlabs for support
