Spotube instantly uploads gigabytes of whatever after launch (caused by flutter_tools.snapshot)

[meinto]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Current Behavior

Try to run spotube via flutter run -d macos.

Directly after launch the upload begins and slows the mac down. It becomes nearly unusable...

Expected Behavior

Dev mode should work on macos

@karniv00l Are you facing the same issue as this one?

[karniv00l]

Doesn't seem to be the exact case on my end

my findings (16" M1 Max)

• only happens in debug mode (release is fine)
• only happens on Library tab
• Sent Bytes are slowly rising - around 100 KB/s
• not seeing any additional network calls on the flutter devtools
• not seeing outgoing traffic from my machine (used Little Snitch)

conclusion - probably flutter devtools server (websocket) is generating local traffic

Thanks a lot dude @karniv00l

[meinto]

Mh yea, I think you are right @karniv00l. It is local traffic.

I found that this bug is also available in the release version (2.3.0). My MacBook turns extreamly slow when I make the Spotube window larger. At some point it seems to trigger an infinite rendering loop (but that's only my first guess). The performance tab of the devtools doesn't stand still at this point. When I make the window smaller again, the performance issue is gone and the MacBook becomes usable again...

I will update the issue description when I have more time.

Closing this issue as it is a Flutter's Issue, and not Spotube 's
