Description

Description

I forgot exactly what it was its ether latch or something wile generating ram segments over 1mb it gets really slow and uses lots of ram.

Suggested Solution

Somehow ether make ram generation in like batches or memory optimizations so ram regions will be made faster and will not cause oom

Additional Context

I do not have exact stuff from tests because when wsl 2 runs out of ram it just crashes.

No file, test, or entry point is identified in the issue. Start by reproducing RAM-segment generation above 1 MB under WSL2 while measuring runtime and memory use; done means generation is faster and avoids the reported out-of-memory crash.
