@chrispader is there anything specific to test with this update?

I think it would be best to do a full regression test suite in E/App, since the changes in NitroSQLite and Nitro Modules might affect large parts of the app. Aside from the fixed memory leak, there were also some low-level changes in Nitro which allows better null types that are now leveraged in NitroSQLite I would ask @mateuuszzzzz to test whether his reported memory leak can still be reproduced. I already contacted him about that. |
