I don't have the inclination to write a treatise countering all the things people are saying, but I do have three articles for which I want to simply document agree/disagree on the various… ## [An Esoteric Type of Memory "Leak"](https://blog.nirbheek.in/2026/05/an-esoteric-type-of-memory-leak.html) _2026-05-14 · Nirbheek · Nirbheek’s Rantings_ A little while ago, my colleague Sebastian started complaining about OOMs caused by Evolution taking up tens of gigabytes of memory.
