Research direction
The issue names org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.6.400.v20210924-0641.jar and provides a screenshot plus VS Code and macOS system details, but no repository file, test, or reproduction steps. Start by reproducing the reported memory use in that environment and tracing the launcher integration; done means the leak is isolated and a verified fix is documented.
