Mango used 18GB of memory today

[Saeverix]

After some general internet browsing use I want outside, the PC auto-locked and suspended.
When I came back I woke the PC, but then I noticed the memory usage meter of Noctalia was in the red.

The Mango process (version 0.17.1) was using a whopping 18GB of memory. I did a quick re-log to fix that, and it stays around 113MB right now.

If it happens again next time, what can I do to create a useful issue with debug information? What do I provide?

If you could reproduce this problem

set this in config:

env=ASAN_OPTIONS,detect_leaks=1:halt_on_error=0:log_path=/tmp/asan.log

then rebuild mango use these command

cd mango

sudo rm build -r

meson build -Dprefix=/usr/ -Dasan=true

sudo ninja -C build install

Once a memory leak occurs, it will automatically generate a report in /tmp/asan.log

You can try the latest submission. I have made some optimizations

@DreamMaoMao I tried the custom build for a while, it got around max 700-800MB yesterday. Then I switched to the new 0.17.2, and it's been stable around 120MB again today. I will keep monitoring and report back.

@DreamMaoMao 0.17.2 seems to be stable, it's been around 100-120MB stable now. So I guess you fixed it 👍
