Safari memory leak
I've just updated to Monterey 12.6.1 and Safari 16.1. I have been shutting down Safari daily or more frequently to avoid it sucking memory. I accidentally left it running overnight and it's crept up to a reported 48.65 GB, see image. I'm surely not the only person encountering this? I have 24 GB RAM fitted in a Late 2015 iMac with i7 and AMD Radeon R9 M395X 4 GB graphics card.
Unless there is a fix, I'm going to stop using Safari. Are there any recent suggested fixes?
