Consensys to Release Fix for MetaMask Browser Extension
Foresight News reports, citing Cointelegraph, that Consensys has acknowledged reports from some MetaMask users regarding "unusually high disk activity" and will soon release a fix. Previously, on June 24, user ripper31337 noted in a GitHub bug report that after reinstalling the MetaMask extension on Chromium-based browsers (such as Chrome, Edge, and Opera), the program continuously wrote data to the solid-state drive (SSD) in the background without any user interaction. This "abnormal disk writing" occurred at a rate of 5MB per second, totaling 500GB per day and accumulating to 25TB over three months.
