Huge memory usage on restart

[tahayk]

Hello,

I have been using Socket.io in a docker container for a while, and it is running really smooth with almost 8K connexions,
but unfortunately when I restart the container, I notice a huge memory leak,
it jumps from 1-2Gb to 20Gb.

any idea how to handle this kind of situations ?

by the way, I'm setting the maxHttpBufferSize to 5Mb.

Thank you in advance.

Interesting! Have you found anything in the heapdump?

@darrachequesne unfortunately I didn't have access to the heapdump because this happened in our production pod

It turns out that this happened because of a stupid mistake in one of our functions called after each connexion (heavy usage of IO).

Good news! Thanks for the update 👍
