Epic memory leak when installing on Windows 8.1 x64 #35

Closed jackdpeterson closed 9 years ago

jackdpeterson commented 9 years ago

executing npm install --save-dev broccoli-sass results in OOM on the box within a very short period of time.

Also attempted npm install -g broccoli-sass

Output hangs at PS E:> npm install -g broccoli-sass |

node-sass@1.1.4 install C:\Users\Jack\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\broccoli-sass\node_modules\node-sass node build.js win32-x64-v8-3.14 exists; testing

NPM version: 1.4.28 RAM: 16GB -- available on start: ~12GB.

broccoli-sass is a thin wrapper around node-sass. Can you find the version of node-sass that triggers this for you, and report it on their repo please? It might be a node-sass or a libsass issue, but the node-sass folks should know more in any case.

epic leak indeed! I'm experiencing the same issue on Win 8.1, it eats up GBs of memory.

Closing this issue for the reasons outlined by joliss above.
