Reloading modules leaks memory

[MikhailArkhipov]

Clone dups.
Open it
Open few files, do some random go to definitions.
Leave product inactive

Observe RAM growth and some odd module reloading

Found this bug via microsoft/vscode-python#2594

Is there a workaround for this? I'm basically blocked at work because all 16G ram + 8G swap gets completely consumed after half an hour of editing

@heyakyra - you are probably hitting #193. This one is not too bad.

Depends on #209

It's still happening in language-server.0.1.60
(Platform: on Windows 10 1803, VSCode 1.28.2, Python 3.6.4)

There are just 5 python scripts in my project.

After I killed this process, it launched again and auto increment to 4GB even 10GB .Auto increment step by 10MB per sec.

I just import numpy and matplotlib in this project,. without peewee.

  This problem happened in 10 nov. But today I can't reproduce this problem in the same project again now.

@GinRyan Unless you can see in your output "reloading modules" repeated while memory usage grows, your issue is likely unrelated to the original bug reported here. If you believe you have an issue we can reproduce, I'd suggest making a new issue with more information instead of commenting on older issues like this one and #109.

I have seen the console output "reloading modules... done" repeated.
