memory leak?

[asad-awadia]

Hello

I recently moved from 1.3.7 to 2.2.7 in roux-stream and now I am seeing a memory leak ?

Usage starts at around 100MB and keeps going up all the way to 500MB

Any idea what changed? or how to debug ?

Hard to say without any code. Can you please provide a minimal working example?

Also, have you investigated the issue using one of the many memory debugging tools available? This StackOverflow post has many links to get you started.

No - I don't know rust. Have to use rust because it is the only language where there is a library to stream reddit comments firehose style

I ll see if i can find something helpful using those tools but having someone who actually understands rust would be very helpful

let (mut stream, join_handle) = stream_comments(
        &subreddit,
        Duration::from_secs(std::env::var("SLEEP").unwrap_or("30".to_string()).parse::<u64>().unwrap_or(30)),
        retry_strategy,
        Some(Duration::from_secs(30)),
    );

changing the sleep to something smaller such as 10 seems to have helped

maybe the incoming was too much for a 30 second sleep?
