When performing inlining LLVM unfortunately "leaks" types (the types survive and are usable, but a new round of inlining will recreate new structurally equivalent types). This accumulation will over time amount to a memory leak which for some queries can be large enough to trigger the OOM process killer. To avoid accumulation of types, all IR related data is stored in an LLVMContextRef which is dropped and recreated in order to release all types. Dropping and recreating incurs overhead, so it will be done only after 100 queries. This is a heuristic which might be revisited, but until we can get the size of the context from LLVM we are flying a bit blind. This issue has been reported several times, there may be more references to it in the archives on top of the threads linked below. Backpatching of this fix will be handled once it has matured in master for a bit.
