Continous increase in Memory usage

@John6666 Previously my RSS was not increasing or it was increasing and comes back down to original point after request completion and the free -h used was growing continuously. Now Currently I’ve tried your approach but in this case both RSS and free -h used are growing with requests.
I have tested your approach by giving 3600 requests for 1 hr (1 req/s)
Stats before request start
Stats after requests completion
Every 1.0s: free -b openclaw-serv-02: Tue Apr 14 11:17:09 2026

I want both RSS and free -h used come back to its original state after every request completion. What could be the approach for it as according to the above approach my GPU server will collapse after some time due to RAM limit reach. Need your opinion on this.
