I have encountered a memory leak that happens when calling fs.createWriteStream from node-fs-extra. Since fs-extra calls gracefu-fs directly for this method I have reported the issue here on the graceful-fs repo: https://github.com/isaacs/node-graceful-fs/issues/248
Since the leak is in graceful-fs I'm adding an issue here mainly as a heads up to anyone looking for a possible cause of their production memory leaks.
The issue is easily solvable by replacing fs-extra calls to createWriteStream with the native node one from node:fs.
