I observe RSS bouncing around, and trending upwards. CPU on the process is at 100%. The test case is a partial implementation of a binary tree which is also a doubly linked list. I chopped it down as far as I could. The issue is triggered by a calling a non-existent method on the Tree object. The test case only has 100 nodes -- it should be instantaneous. I kill it after some 6+ minutes with RSS hitting upwards of 5GB. I am working in 2.6.3. Duplicated in 2.5.3 and 2.4.3 (with some code modifications) ---Files-------------------------------- issue.rb (2.67 KB) -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe:
