[BUG]Version 2.1.27 spikes memory and causes computer to freeze and force restart on Macbook air m1
Resolved 💬 3 comments Opened Feb 2, 2026 by Mduaney Closed Feb 6, 2026
Preflight Checklist
- [x] I have searched existing issues and this hasn't been reported yet
- [x] This is a single bug report (please file separate reports for different bugs)
- [x] I am using the latest version of Claude Code
What's Wrong?
The computer will freeze and force restart. Activity monitor shows claude using over 10 gb of ram. I'm using the Claude Code in Antigravity. I also have the desktop app installed and open. I was using code when this happened. It spiked up again after the computer restarted and no process running.
What Should Happen?
It should use less ram.
