After starting Synfire Pro up there are 58 instances of the Plugin Scanner process running in the background. This takes up a lot of memory (largest 1082MB smallest 33 MB). Even if I close Synfire these processes are not terminated.
I am running Windows 11 (windows update tells me: You're up to date)
I am using Synfire Pro 2.6.2.

There should be no more than 8 processes at the same time. When a plugin hangs it can take some time until the process is killed. How many plugins do you see that could not be scanned? I mean which are missing from the menu after the scan completed.

Well quite a lot. I'll attach my broken plugins (according to synfire). As a work around I've added all these "broken" plugins to the BrokenPlugins64.txt file so Synfire skips them.
