This issue could not be confirmed due to the long time needed to perform the STR. Considering that the bug has some memory reports attached, I will set its component as (Core) Memory Allocator and hope it can be addressed further. If the component is incorrect, please set it to a more appropriate one. 

Thank you for your contribution!

Hi convictcat, can you try this again with all add-ons disabled? Do you still see the problem then? Thanks.
