Duplicating .bundle files in memory with each .loadModels() call

[krotoff]

Hello guys.

I have the next issue: I am calling .loadModels() on each launch of my app to make it ready to transcribe.
I have checked the behavior and found next things:

1. Each call takes 3-20s
2. After each call the size of my app raises for 150MB
3. These 150MB is gained by at least two files:
4. /Users/{my_user}/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/{device-id}/data/Containers/Data/Application/{app-id}/Library/Caches/{app-bundle}/com.apple.e5rt.e5bundlecache/21F79/{everytime-new-id-1}/{everytime-new-id-2}.bundle (42MB)
5. /Users/{my_user}/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/{device-id}//data/Containers/Data/Application/{app-id}/Library/Caches/{app-bundle}/com.apple.e5rt.e5bundlecache/21F79/{everytime-new-id-3}/{everytime-new-id-4}.bundle 104MB

So each launch my app raises its size with 150MB+. Could you please help me with that?

Thank you.

Does this happen on real devices?

Simulator devices have a spoofed software stack that may not correlate with real device behavior, especially for cached artifacts such as those contained in com.apple.e5rt.e5bundlecache

Hi @bpkeene

Thanks for coming here. Yeah, it happens on real devices as well, each launch makes size of the app bigger
