Application does not release memory after usage when returning to the disk selection screen. #57

The bug reproduces after 5-10 consecutive runs and interrupt the scanning each time. At some point, a portion of the memory does not get released.

So, it seems this is normal behavior for the operating system https://stackoverflow.com/a/17008306

I have confirmed that if the memory is loaded to 100%, the system will automatically release this reserved memory and the application's memory usage will return to the value it had at the start.
