Issue Description

When using tsgo.exe (version 7.0.0-dev.20250630.1) with the latest VS Code insider (1.102.0-insider), the memory consumed sometimes balloons to up to 55GB! (Good thing my machine has 64GB).
And even in "normal" mode, it often hovers around 18GB.

The image below was from when it was ramping up to reach 55GB eventually; this is midway through:

It has also caused my VS Code to crash:

And on two occasions my computer froze completely and required me to forcefully reboot it (though at that time, tsgo was at a relatively lower memory consumption, so maybe that wasn't related; or at least, not to memory, but something else in tsgo/VSCode)
