I'm pretty sure the memory consumption happens with CTFE and Don is
working on it.

The following quote:

it also gives very detailed information that indicates which parts of

from here:

suggests massif might be some help in narrowing down the cause.

The problem with valgrind is that it does increase quite a lot the memory consumption of the program.
