I think it is happening because we are importing the whole AWS SDK here:

mail/src/Drivers/Ses.ts

Line 12 in 3921b83

import * as aws from 'aws-sdk'

I think it can be fixed by importing the necessary code only.
For reference: aws/aws-sdk-js#2683 (comment)

Package version

7.1.1

Node.js and npm version

v16.1.0 and 0.35.1

Not sure how importing a package can eat all the memory?
