Summary of the issue you are facing:
Since upgrading from 31.0.12 to 31.0.13 - Nextcloud TALK in the Edge Browser becomes very slow. Loading one Talk conversation takes about 30 secs - often there is a out of Memory message, shown in the EDGE Browser (MS:Version 144.0.3719.82 (Offizielles Build) (64-Bit).
Steps to replicate it (hint: details matter!):
-
Login to nextcloud gui on microsoft Edge Browser
-
Switch to TALK App
-
choose one conversation
-
switching between talk conversations takes very long and out of memory messages to appear

Chromium ‘memory leak’ due to hardware acceleration
In Chromium browsers (Edge/Chrome), problems often arise with video processing via WebRTC when hardware acceleration communicates incorrectly with the graphics driver. This leads to the observed ‘out of memory’ error.
Test: Disable hardware acceleration in Edge on a trial basis:
Settings → System and performance → Turn off ‘Use hardware acceleration when available’.
Restart the browser. If it then runs stably, the problem is due to a driver conflict.
Edge-specific ‘efficiency modes’
Edge has features to save RAM, which paradoxically can cause crashes in real-time applications such as Talk if the tab is incorrectly put into hibernation or throttled.
Solution: Add your Nextcloud instance to the ‘exception list’:
Go to edge://settings/system.
Find the section Never put these websites to sleep.
Add the URL of your Nextcloud.

Tips for increasing the likelihood of a response
- Use the
preformatted textformatting option in the editor for all log entries and configuration output. - If screenshots are useful, feel free to include them.
- If possible, also include key error output in text form so it can be searched for.
- Try to edit log output only minimally (if at all) so that it can be ran through analyzers / formatters by those trying to help you.
