Very large memory usage in python project
Affected version
- Nightly flatpak: Yes
Steps to reproduce
- Open a project in Builder.
- Open a large number of files that are inside the project directory with an external program. I encounter this with a python script that loads the entire CVE dataset in parallel. It does not matter if the script is run from within builder, or in an external terminal.
Current behavior
The gnome-builder
process grows to upwards of 14 GiB
.
Expected behavior
Builder does not use this much memory.
