In the "What's new in SwiftUI" session at WWDC 2024, several enhancements were introduced to help reduce memory usage and improve performance. One of the key improvements is the ability to precompile shaders before their first use, which helps avoid frame drops caused by lazy shader compilation. This can lead to more efficient memory usage and smoother performance in applications that use custom shaders.

Additionally, SwiftUI has improved its APIs to make it easier to adopt the new Swift 6 language mode, which includes compile-time data race safety. This can help developers write more efficient and safer code, potentially reducing memory usage by avoiding unnecessary data duplication and race conditions.

For more details, you can refer to the session What’s new in SwiftUI (16:18).
