Exiting code browser leaves decompiler.exe and Console Window Host in task manager

[mumbel]

Describe the bug
Code browser gets noticeably sluggish to the point of unusable.

Look at task manager and it's at 97-100% cpu for the java task and 8.4gb ram.

After closing the code browser, there are several decompiler.exe and console window host children that are still listed

MIPS64 binary if that matters.

I don't know how to repro but it is happening often with this setup. Any suggestions on debugging or looking for useful artifacts, either while code browser is open for next time or while just frontend is still running?

Environment (please complete the following information):

• OS: win10
• Java Version: 21.0.4
• Ghidra Version: 11.3.2
• Ghidra Origin: GitHub distro

That's not normal, at least not all the console processes. I suspect that the decompiler is stuck in an infinite loop on multiple functions maybe?
Maybe try limiting the number of parallel decompiler to one and see if it gets stuck somewhere.

I'm assuming this is happening during initial analysis.

What is your disk usage like in the task manager?
