Intruder going out-of-memory when enumerating file download functionality

My intruder is going quickly out of memory as I am enumerating numbers which each request gives me a downloadable file. The intruder requests are set to not store the response data, but still the memory keeps increasing until it is out-of-memory. Furthermore, the memory is never garbage collected when I close the intruder windows. My next step would be to disable all plugins and see if it improves.

Looks like it was logger++ causing it.

Confirmed. Logger++ was logging full Intruder responses. Sorry, case closed.
