Hi @kamil-sienkiewicz-asi, I'm sorry for the delay!

thanks for reporting and for the recording video, I'll be taking a look as soon as possible

I took a look in the master branch and also in the e v6 branch, I've added a few extra cleanup code to prevent memory leak, but on my tests, looks like there's no relevant progress so far, so I'll add the help wanted label on this one, please feel free to help too if you have any available time.
