      Issue Summary

      In large instances, gRPC threads on the sidecar might become stuck, causing the relevant object to not be promoted in the heap - this ends up causing the heap to grow exponentially, resulting in an OutOfMemory error. This crashes the sidecar, rendering all repositories on that node unavailable.

      Steps to Reproduce

      Currently, there are no known steps to reproduce this behavior. These will be added here when available.

      Expected Results

      gRPC threads progress as expected, allowing GC to clear out the heap for continuous usage.

      Actual Results

      Objects are retained in the heap, resulting in an OOM error causing the sidecar process to be terminated.

      Workaround

      Currently, there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available
