Hi all,

It seems that creating and initializing an IOC takes up a crazy high amount of memory when ran under sudo. This is not the case when ran as user. Here is a minimal example to demonstrate:

```python
import psutil
from softioc import softioc, builder, asyncio_dispatcher

def print_memory_usage(loc: str):
print(f"{loc:32s}: {psutil.Process().memory_info().rss:,}")

print_memory_usage("Before PV")
pv = builder.longOut("myVariable")

print_memory_usage("Before loadDatabase")
builder.LoadDatabase()

print_memory_usage("Before dispatcher")
dispatcher = asyncio_dispatcher.AsyncioDispatcher()
print_memory_usage("Before iocInit")
softioc.iocInit(dispatcher)

print_memory_usage("Before start")
softioc.interactive_ioc()
```

Output when ran as user:
```

As you can see, the issue seems to happen in `softioc.iocInit`. Packages used to test (on Ubuntu):
```
softioc 4.5.0
psutil 6.1.1
```

This issue occurs both on Ubuntu and NixOS.
