Is there a reason TalkTastic is so memory hungry when idle?

Yes, it’s because the local transcription model is loaded, but we’re going to be removing this in the next release so it consumes much less memory

If you remove the local model, will you be using only cloud-based models going forward?

for now yes, to simplify so we can move faster

are they different models though? have you compared the local "style" vs the cloud models?

cloud is generally more accurate, right now you are getting both and the app i selecting between them. local for speed, cloud for accuracy
