Memory Consumption Issue #48

Open adrian-chen-au opened 3 years ago

adrian-chen-au commented 3 years ago

Strippy can consume a large amount of memory when sanitising.

This is especially evident when processing collector (DT CAG) that is used as a RUM beacon. It is possible to consume 11-13 GB of memory and causing powershell to crash due to out of memory issue.

Version ~2.4 (To be confirmed.)

How big was the source log filesystem? Can you please run the script as normal with -log and make the output available to me?

It's a normal part of the powershell process to consume a significant amount of memory, That is required as part of the key finding and sanitisation process.

The attempt to run the script with -log resulted in #47 .
