Ridiculous RAM usage.

Ridiculous RAM usage.

I use Spotify to listen to music while basically playing any game on my PC.

I'm running windows 7 64-bit.

I've noticed the longer Spotify runs the more RAM it uses, causing both my PC AND games to freeze up eventually.

I could launch Spotify and keep it on for hours and when i'd come back i'd have a few 100 mb's left of RAM untill I manually clean it using third-party software, which should not be needed.

I'don't know when it started but I would like it gone since I absolutely love Spotify apart from this issue.

I've reinstalled,  restarted, cleaned cache, etc etc.
Nothing has worked so far.

Also tried turning of Hardware Acceleration but no difference.
