Description
When downloading the binary and running it against a specific yaml and error is thrown:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space

I have tried increasing the maximum memory allocation by using -Xmx=24g. I don't think that there should be any reason to require any more than that. I assume there is a potential memory-leak

Research direction
Start by running the documented Java command with openapi-generator-cli 7.22.0 against the Tripletex OpenAPI URL and review log.txt alongside the OutOfMemoryError stack trace. Trace whether the failure is specific to Python generation or the input document. Done means the cause is isolated and generation completes within reasonable memory, or the issue is reduced to a reproducible generator defect with a focused failing case.
