Memory leaks while downloading blockchain on Windows 11. #652

Description

@SkybuckFlying

While running gvite-v2.13.0-windows on windows 11, it seems to leak memory at these two blockchain heights:

1st height: 14639409
2st height: 16493800

1st case: I saw memory go up to 127 GB out of 128 GB available ram and even wear/tearing the pagefile.sys/ssd.
2st case: I saw memory go up to 83 GB out of 128 GB (this time pagefile.sys disabled out of caution).

In both cases the downloading stalled/halted, no more activity, except high memory usage.

In 2st case I closed it probably before it would reach 127 GB out of 128 GB of RAM.

(
Notes:

  1. Restarting the application will make it continue, this is not a good solution, user must first detect the hang and restart, kinda hard to do when user is sleeping at night ! =D)

  2. The documentation has broken link to blockchain file, it's no longer available
