Memory leak in ktlintFormat task

See original GitHub issue

Probably related with #447

I’m running git rebase -i develop --exec "./gradlew ktlintFormat" on a branch with 40 commits and I’m getting this error on my local machine (macOS):

> A failure occurred while executing org.jlleitschuh.gradle.ktlint.worker.KtLintWorkAction
   > Java heap space

It seems like a leak to me. The first 5 coomits ok, then the next failed. I reran the task manually on that commit and it worked. But then the 8th commit failed. and the pattern continued until the commit 15th. I can’t run the task any more. It fails every single time with the error I pasted above. As soon as I killed the daemon ./gradlew --stop it worked.

I’m using v10.1.0

Okay, so I’ve been running with version 0.43.0 since this was last updated, and I just now started seeing this issue again.
