Bug description
Huge memory consumption by pandoc (21 GB) while having Quarto Preview of a Quarto book project (.qmd file) open in VS Code.
Regulary, after working for a while in VS Code with a live preview of my Quarto document running my computer slows down and I notice the huge memory consumption of the Pandoc process (~20 GB). I then kill the process. Often, after half an hour or less the same problem is there again.
Steps to reproduce
.qmd
(just markdown and Latex formulas) file in VS Code.Expected behavior
Low memory consumption / memory consumption stays at levels that do not effect computer performance noticably.
Actual behavior
High memory consumption of Pandoc (~20 GB).
