op-challenger memory leak #10997

Open ajsutton opened 2 months ago

ajsutton commented 2 months ago

The memory usage of op-challenger is gradually increasing the longer it runs. While the rate of increase is slow and going to cause any actual issues, particularly for networks that have been running fault proofs for a fair while like op-sepolia, its expected the system should be in a fairly steady state.

We should investigate the increase in memory and either understand why it's happening (and that it will flatten out given more time) or fix whatever memory leak is causing it.

:), Is it fixed?

ajsutton commented 1 month ago

Not yet, but it's very slow so not a threat.
