Memory consumption is too high (RAM)

Manish | Last updated: Nov 08, 2018 06:02AM UTC

I am using Burp beta 2.0.11. Looks like it has memory leak issue, when I start scanning, it was good but the memory consumption was increasing. I usually close the burp and restart to free the memory. But when I reopen the project file and resume the scanning, the memory consumption goes upto 6.5 GM in few minutes. Is there any workaround for it? I am not able to complete the scanning.

What extensions do you have installed? If you run Burp from the command line, you can limit Burp's heap size: - https://support.portswigger.net/customer/portal/articles/2928360-using-burp-s-command-line-arguments
