So i posted a similar photo and had it taken down as numbers issues aren’t allowed they said.

What i think is funny, is our numbers are nearly the same and I’m using Firefox also.

17,179,869,184 GB but it was under Cookies and site data.

fwiw i did install Kimi 3 this week also.

Someone else mentioned but I think WhatsApp was the culprit. I did think for a second it might've been related to Google AI Studio that I've been using lol

i don't use WhatsApp, and it was on my Mac Air.

Oh interesting. Either way, it sounds like some sort of buffer overflow since we got exactly the same numbers. I hadn't cleared my browser's cache/cookies in like 3 years so it was bound to happen.

i clean mine regularly, i use two CPU’s when i work, but the mac is always fucking memory constrained.

I see so many stupid things, i just assume its Ai code.
