Not exactly. As explained, I am intentionally measuring the allocated

am aware that they are not the same. Nevertheless, I try to report
anomalies like this one when I find them.

Another example is webkitgtk. It uses overcommit as a security feature
codenamed Gigacage. The webkitgtk maintainers would close this kind of
bug as NOTABUG. Perhaps, gjs is doing something similar.

No. The most memory consuming webkit package in Debian allocates 6 GB or 7 GB of RAM during build. Compared with 237 GB, it's not similar.

Thanks.
