This is a general tracking issue for memory usage in gopls. We need to collect data and set goals for usage for a given project size. We also need to work towards reducing the memory usage when staticcheck is enabled (though that may be a separate issue).

If you have a specific problem with gopls using too much memory on your machine, please create a new issue so that we can investigate it separately.

Please include your editor settings and memory debug information with your issue. These are automatically written to the temporary directory (/tmp for Unixes) with names like gopls.1234-5GiB-withnames.zip. If you are uncomfortable sharing the package names of your code, you can share the -nonames zip instead.
