Memory Leak in forge-pull?

Closed this issue · 0 comments

Aloha,

thank you for your release! I was finally able to use forge successfully in several small projects and it is great! :)

However, i found a bug when trying to use a mid-size project. Doing a forge-pull in small projects with ~ 100 issues and MRs is fine. But when i do this for ~ 1.200 issues and MRs emacs crashes. I can see that the issues got fetched and the MRs are getting pulled in. At some point in time my Laptop become slower, later emacs will not render anymore and get killed.

I saw it eating up to 32 GB of RAM before the OOM-Killer did his job.

I am using forge 0.4.1 on FreeBSD and emacs 24.2. I am pulling from a self hosted GitLab.

I am not sure how i can provide helpful information to debug this issue. If you can guide me i will provide everything you need :)

Best,
Torsten
