    Description

      Questions and concerns that QtWebEngine consumes too much of memory (in RAM and in storage) come across at least all 4 months. It seems, there user

      Along with documentation updates which have recently been discussed, I kindly ask to provide a separate article or a section in https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qtwebengine-platform-notes.html that would explain the following:

      • a small portion of the actual Qt API and integration layer in the total of the large QtWebEngineCore module
      • typical memory footprint in different scenarios for most common web content
      • The actual reason why the "QtWebEngineProcess" is listed in system tools as consuming a lot of memory (it is basically Chromium itself and the web content processed by it)
      • API and any other options available to configure any form of memory consumption, incl. caches
      • Any options available to trace and track consumption including options in Chromium itself
      • Any known references to techniques for optimization of web content for lower memory footprint
