Worksheet

Node.js memory leak triage sheet

A one page worksheet. Rows list each suspect: caches, listeners, timers, connection pools, exports and file handles. Columns record where it lives in the code, the evidence from snapshots, the fix applied and the memory chart before and after. A header box holds the Node version, container limit and flags.
