Some Mac owners are reporting that after they installed macOS Monterey and hoped to take advantage of the update’s latest features, they ended up facing a ‘memory leak’ problem. In some instances, some users state that their Mac is giving a warning that the system has run out of memory.

For those that do not know, a memory leak is when a specific macOS program consumes way more RAM than it is supposed to, which is why users are seeing warnings on their Macs that it is running out of memory. According to MacRumors, the issue has also affected the 2021 MacBook Pro models, which can be configured with up to 64GB of unified RAM.
