memory leak on deep_cyclic_copy jest 23

[sibelius]

🐛 Bug Report

The heap usage keeps increasing when using mongoose

To Reproduce

https://github.com/entria/graphql-dataloader-boilerplate has a simple config that has this issue, but it only crashes when there are a lot of tests (as the memory keeps increasing).

this happens with and without --runInBand option

Expected behavior

the memory heap decreases after a jest

Run npx envinfo --preset jest

Below is a print of some tests in a private repo:

And here the crash when the memory heap is not enough anymore:

I think this is related to #6738

@sibelius thanks for reporting - why do you think deepCyclicCopy is leaking? I see it in the stack trace but isn't that just where it runs out of memory, not necessarily what is leaking?

[sibelius]

it makes sense, maybe the leaking is in another part of the code

I've ran in this repo as well https://github.com/graphql-compose/graphql-compose-mongoose

and the heap is increasing there as well

[rickhanlonii]

Can you run with --detectLeaks?

[sibelius]

28 tests failed with leaks

on https://github.com/graphql-compose/graphql-compose-mongoose

is there any way to get more information about it?

[sibelius]

I've found this about memory leak on mongoose Automattic/mongoose#2874 (comment):

mongoose.connections.forEach(connection => {
  const modelNames = Object.keys(connection.models)

  modelNames.forEach(modelName => {
    delete connection.models[modelName]
  })

  const collectionNames = Object.keys(connection.collections)
  collectionNames.forEach(collectionName => {
    delete connection.collections[collectionName]
  })
})

const modelSchemaNames = Object.keys(mongoose.modelSchemas)
modelSchemaNames.forEach(modelSchemaName => {
  delete mongoose.modelSchemas[modelSchemaName]
})

I've added this to afterAll jest hook, but it did not worked well

[sibelius]

it could be related to this comment #1456 (comment)

I am facing the same problema and what I am seeing here is the same message:

    1: deepCyclicCopyObject(aka deepCyclicCopyObject) [0x12794b44b231] [/path/to/app/app-server/node_modules/jest-util/build/deep_cyclic_copy.js:~54]...

[sibelius]

we added this #6787 (comment) to afterAll hook, it solved most part of memory leak from mongoose

and we solved the other leak part mocking graphql-redis-subscriptions

[vkarpov15]

Mongoose maintainer here. This is not a memory leak, its global state that you need to clean up in your tests. In general, using global state in tests is an anti-pattern. If you want to create a new model for each test, use mongoose.createConnection() to create a new connection for each test.
