[Web Player][Browse] Spotify Web Player high memory usage

After playing just 2 songs Spotify Web Player uses 1,7GB of my memory, while I can watch 4 Twitch streamers on Source quality at the same time and memory usage won't reach 1GB. After using 1,7GB of my memory Tab will crash with Aw Snap message. Although I'm pretty sure that Chromium 52 (the latest Dev build from Woolyss website)  is causing this issue.

Sorry I just noticed that I added this in the wrong category.

So far the only issue is that Spotify process keeps climbing, climbing, climbing and climbing. It starts at 250mb and goes all the way upto 1,7GB and keeps climbing. As far as I understand it should not do that, I think it should be stable ram usage. All the other process's are very stable and doesn't climb up like Spotify process does. Spotify process climbs up 2mb every second.

 

After opening Spotify Web Player: 250mb usage

After playing 2 songs (15mins in total): 520mb usage
