Using the gjson
String()
method will often cause the entire JSON string to be retained in memory.This PR copies gjson to the thirdparty package and adds a
ClonedString
method togjson.Result
. TheClonedString
method returns a cloned copy of the Result string so that the larger JSON string is available for garbage collection.The Rest and RestPerf collectors were updated to use
gjson.ClonedString()
.A similar fix was made in #2054 for RestPerf.
