### Bug description
Under certain conditions the Nextcloud desktop client fills all available memory and then eventually crashes.
### Steps to reproduce
1. Launch Nextcloud desktop client
2. The client is in the process of uploading files or checking for changes in remote
3. Launch the Steam client
4. Nextcloud desktop client stops responding and starts using all available memory until it crashes

The Nextcloud doesn't use excessive memory, stays responsive and doesn't crash.

When Steam client is launched first and then Nextcloud client, the issue does not occur.
