Hi @BorysMariusz we recommend submitting an issue to PowerShell/PowerShell repo. Also it would be great if you can share the script.

Thank you @isra-fel for feedback. I have tested today one more thing. I have ran the script not in vscode but in standalone PowerShell core terminal which is being installed in the MacOS system. The RAM consumption was a aprox. 400 MB. It seems PWSH host, consume GBs of memory only when used in VScode Integrated Terminal. How can we address this ?

Hi, vscode is also open source, so I suggest open a new issue to this repo https://github.com/microsoft/vscode
BTW I didn't find similar issues there.

I think I have the solution. I have enabled option on vscode powershell.analyzeOpenDocumentsOnly.
