Chicken! It's fine. X, 7, CC and others all work as expected.

Everything works fine, but it seems to suck down my RAM way faster than before on 10.10.3.

Using a new Mac Pro with 64GB. I even got a dialogue pop up twice about force quitting applications because the system ran out of memory, and the second time completely froze my Mac and I had to do a hard shut down. The only thing running was FCPX and Safari. Seems to be a memory leak somewhere. After having FCPX open for 5 minutes, my memory goes from 55GB free down to 20GB and falls rapidly.

No issues at all here.

Adam: do you have background rendering turned on?

I had a memory leak like that. I was roughing something together and I had a bunch of layers (6 or more) that I added outgoing transitions to and when I tried to render it to see what it looked like I got a serious memory leak. After I removed the transitions all was OK. It was the built-in slide transition. Each of the layers also had a Tokyo PiPinator effect on it. I reported it to Apple and since I ended up not taking that route for what I was trying to do it wasn't an issue. I have not seen anything similar since. This is on 10.10.3 however.

Ronny, no I do not. I usually keep that off at all times.

Okay, thanks. Then I agree with anickt that you might have one or more plugins that are causing the memory leak. I have seen some other reports about this, but the issue you are describing is really abnormal.

Can you do a test? Create a new admin user account. Launch FCP X with this account and see if you still get the abnormal memory usage. Then report back.

I had a hard time updating to 10.10.4, the app store application would freeze up when I checked for new updates. At the same time start the app was using a fair amount of CPU and started filling up RAM. It required a fair amount of fiddling around with force quitting the software update that seemed to be not doing anything and system restarts and checking the iTunes store. This happened on both a New mac pro and a Macbook pro.

After running the update process for 10.10.4 my 2009 17" macbookpro refused to shut down. I forced a shutdown after one hour of inactivity (grey screen, with just a moveable mouse pointer) by holding down the power button. After power up I got the usual message that my MBP experienced a forced powering down.
I checked the OS version. It was still on 10.10.3.
I repaired disk permissions and repeated the process of shutting down. Same behavior again.
After a search in Google i found a forum post about XTraFinder that might cause these problems. I have it onmy system too.
I uninstalled XtraFinder and immediately the 10.10.4 installation process resumed.
Shutting down and/or restarting is working again.
So, if you are running XtraFinder and experience these problems too, try if uninstalling helps.

Red Giant Looks seems not to be working for me after the update...
