Hello everybody,
I noticed that after just a few minutes using OBS Studio (tested ver. 0.16.2 on an Ubuntu 16.10 64bit - Intel Core i5 - 8 GB Ram - SSD) slows down up to the point to be unusable.
This happens even by just starting the app without doing anything special, but I can see two different behaviors:
- starting OBS in non-studio mode (single preview window) the app memory consumption increases very slowly (~ 2% per minute)
- starting OBS in studio mode (double preview window) the app memory consumption increases much faster (~ +15% per minute)

Before writing a clean install was made (also getting rid of .config/obs-studio conf dir) but no changes are observerd.

I got this trouble too.
Open OBS without recording or streaming. Memory keeps leaking.
