Why use new URL() may lead to memory leak ?
- Version: 8.4.0
- Platform: Linux version 3.10.0-514.10.2.el7.x86_64
- Subsystem: CentOS Linux release 7.3.1611 (Core)
My project is using express.js, and having a code fragment like this:
conse {URL} = require('url'); const express = require('express'); const router = express.Router(); router.put('', (req, res) => { let data = req.body.flow ? JSON.parse(req.body.flow) : {}; if (data.url && !data.domain) { data.domain = new URL(data.url).hostname; } res.send(); })
When many request come in, the project memory will rise slowly ,and sometimes it will drop a little. but in general it's still up. When i change to url.parse(), the memory looks normal. I use PM2 to look memory.
What's the difference between the two(new URL and url.parse) in memory or gc?
