Description

We should verify how much RAM the file reader uses in our unit testing. This will help ensure we don't introduce regressions when we make changes to the file reader. Primarily we should look at the size of the search cache after the file reader is initialized.

Research direction

No file or test path is named. Start by locating the file reader initialization and its search cache, then identify the existing unit-test pattern for measuring memory. Done means tests verify RAM usage, especially search-cache size after initialization, and catch future regressions.
