That doesn't use signald. It uses the full desktop client in nodejs and as such uses a lot of memory :(

Check the link -- there is an older bridge which ran the client with some monkey-patched JavaScript, but this is a new bridge that does use signald.

Ahh ok I wasn't aware of this. I used the bridge about 1.5 years ago and dropped it because of its crazy memory use and instability. I didn't realise it had been rewritten. I'll give it another try, thanks!
