### Phase 21 — Post-landing: raw-queue and per-chunk bounds (landed 2026-06-24)
|
||||
|
||||
**Landed:** 2026-06-24 on `streaming-overhaul`. Fixes a Chrome tab crash (main-process OOM with hardware acceleration OFF) on long-track playback. Two unbounded memory queues remained after Phase 21 landed; this patch adds complementary bounds on both.
|
||||
|
||||
1. **`StreamingAudioPlayerService` — per-chunk drain inside segments.** Phase 21 Direction B's inter-segment back-pressure gate is matched to WAV byte density (~24 s per 4 MB segment), but not to Opus: at 320 kbps a 4 MB segment is ~100 s of decodable audio. The inner chunk loop had no fill check, so the entire segment decoded eagerly ahead of the playhead — piling decoded f32 PCM into main-process RAM before the inter-segment gate ever ran. Fix: an extracted `DrainBackpressureAsync` helper (shared with the inter-segment gate) is called per chunk once the scheduler is over high-water, gated on `_streamingPlaybackStarted` so it cannot deadlock first-audio (the playhead doesn't advance until playback starts, so draining to low-water would block indefinitely before the first buffer plays). Also added load-generation diagnostic logging (`_loadGeneration`) to confirm single-load-per-play-action in-browser.
|
||||
|
||||
2. **`StreamDecoder.ts` — `releaseConsumedChunks()` front-compaction of `rawChunks`.** `rawChunks` retained the entire decoded-from stream body because consumed chunks were never released — a 92-min WAV mix (≈ 970 MB raw) accumulated all of it in the browser. Phase 21.2's 96 MB decoded-side ceiling does not reach this raw queue. Fix: `releaseConsumedChunks()` walks `rawChunks` after each aligned segment is decoded and splices off all fully-consumed chunks (any chunk whose end ≤ `processedBytes`), advancing `discardedBytes` (an absolute cursor into the logical stream) so `extractAlignedData` can continue walking from the correct position even though `rawChunks[0]` no longer begins at byte 0. This is the raw-side analogue of `PlaybackScheduler.evictPlayedBuffers` (the decoded side).
|
||||
|
||||
Together with the existing decoded-side 96 MB ceiling (Phase 21.2) and the segmented fetch (Phase 21 Direction B), these complete the three-layer memory bound: raw queue, decoded queue, and network.
