It's really quite bad. 'Telegram Lite' is using 1.16GB with just a single chat vs Signal using 193MB. Somehow vscode (including their renderers) manages to come in pretty low compared to even Apples native apps.

That’s still an order of magnitude worse than it should be. You don’t need 200mb of ram for a chat app.

Because the issue isn't electron, it's not freeing resources which you can do in any language/platform.
