[Connect to VPN] Create defunct processes every 30 seconds

[arthur-fontaine]

Extension

https://www.raycast.com/rasmusbe/connect-to-vpn

Raycast Version

1.88.4

macOS Version

15.1.1

Description

For a month, the Connect to VPN make my Macbook Pro M1 Pro crashes every few days. In the Terminal it shows fork failed: Resource temporarily unavailable message, in the browser it can't open any new tab, etc.

After investigating (#9410 (comment)), I figured out that the zombie processed were created by the Raycast Helper (Extensions).

And after running ps -eo pid,ppid,etime,comm | grep defunct, I found that a defunct process was created every 30 seconds.

By running log stream --predicate "subsystem == 'com.raycast.macos'" --level debug --style compact, I found that this was correlated to the Connect to VPN extension.

Checking the changes, I found that there was a change a month ago that trigger something every 30 seconds.

Looking at this comment #9410 (comment), and the code and this code 989f3ec#diff-87c853ea201b0ac6d5e80278f9511e5e411a81ecc6069eb4411fa81ab5fcb449R19-R24, I think that the issue is that there is no cleanup function returned by the useEffect.

Steps To Reproduce

I think the bug is on every Mac, so just install the Connect to VPN extension.
