Freeze after hitting "Send Selection to AE" button and INSANE RAM usage #59

**I take a lot of Sketch files from my design team to bring them into AE. I have an intermittent issue where SOMETIMES when I hit the Send Selection to AE button, nothing happens... it never sends. And then the really weird part is my RAM usage for Sketch starts going off the charts... over the course of a few seconds it eats up gigabytes and gigabytes of RAM until I force quit (the program locks at this point anyway).

Sometimes the artboard or section of an artboard is large, but sometimes it's quite small. The ONLY commonality I can find is that the culprit sections I try to send that fail all have imported JPEGs or PNGs in them. Not huge ones, sometimes just thumbnail sized. But Ive never had this issue with something Ive tried to send over that was just Sketch-native layers. Then again, sometimes images send over fine too! Very frustrating.**

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Take an artboard with images (JPGs or PNGs) in it
  2. Click on Send Selection to AE
  3. SOMETIMES it locks up and starts eating crazy amounts of RAM wildly until you force quit.

Expected behavior It should not do this haha.

Same issue here. Doesn't matter the AE 17, 18,18.1, 18.2 or AEUX version, 0.7.6 or 0.7.8. Currently on MacOS 11.2. Oddly enough after using more than 32 GB of memory/swap it was either able to finish or crash the runaway part of the process and finish the export... eventually.
