Research direction

Start by reproducing the memory growth with Proxyman 5.0.0 on macOS 14.4.1 while monitoring application memory over several days. Since no files or tests are mentioned, identify the subsystem responsible for the growth; done means prolonged use no longer exhausts application memory.
