Sudden high memory usage running prompt.py

[ThomasLobker]

I'm running a Python node on my workstation on NEO TestNet for almost three weeks now. Suddenly my workstation starts running slow. The Python process was using a lot of resources (over 12 GB memory and about 50% CPU) and the usage was climbing quite quickly. I had to shutdown the node.

Command:

python prompt.py -t

Last state of the node:

[TestNet] Progress: 884333/884402

Environment:

Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
Python 3.5.2

Version:

Commit: fe5f65f

I'm having no further issues with my workstation.

Could you pull down the latest and see if you can replicate on v0.4.1?

I'm going to close this issue. If you see it occur again feel free to open a new issue.
