rg process spawned by :Rg is never terminated

[x ] I have read through https://github.com/junegunn/fzf.vim/blob/master/README.md
[x ] I have read through https://github.com/junegunn/fzf/blob/master/README-VIM.md
[x ] I have read through the manual page of fzf (man fzf)
[x ] I have searched through the existing issues

Any time I use Rg, regardless of whether I subsequently open a file or cancel it with ESC, the rg process continues to run indefinitely.

If I follow thesee steps:

open the minimal vim (or neovim) as in the issue template
:Rg and open a file
:Rg then ESC
:q! to quit vim

My activity monitor shows this:

This makes Rg unusable, as the rg process maxes out the CPU until I manually kill it.

You can somewhat fix this problem by finding any large files in the directory that are causing rg to never terminate (for me it was a 12GB sql file). Agreed that this is an issue though, I was encountering the same thing and it was really hard to pin down and drained my battery quickly

Ran into this today. A timeout feature would be ideal to terminate the search if it doesn't succeed in X time.
