What issue are you seeing?
During chatGPT working on run some command(coding, java/mysql/vue/vite/git) , the process's memory usage gradually increases at a rate of approximately 20–40 MB per second.
I had created a dump file when the process chatGPT.exe up to 9GB and the dum file is 8.75GB. After a few minutes, the process's memory usage continued to increase, pushing the system's total memory consumption to 32 GB, which is the full amount of physical RAM on my machine. ChatGPT then crashed and exited. This has already happened twice today.
Upload the dump file failed.
