Out of memory issue when executing Publish-OSPlatformModule function

[wartang]

After an upgrade to the latest version of the platform IDE, when republishing over 400 modules using the line below, I always run into a out of memory issue in PowerShell. I have 12GB of ram on my server. Is that not enough? Is there a limitation to how many modules the script can republish at once? Am I running the script incorrectly?

Get-OSPlatformModules -Credential $SCCreds -PassThru -Filter {$_.StatusMessages.Id -eq 13} -ErrorAction Stop | Publish-OSPlatformModule -Wait -Verbose -ErrorAction Stop | Out-Null

After reviewing the logs, it generates the OutofMemory after about 2 hours of powershell executing....

Hi @wartang. Yes, you're totally right. This is know problem cause we are creating a New-WebServiceProxy on each request instead of re-using an existing one. Even while checking for publication results.

https://github.com/OutSystems/OutSystems.SetupTools/blob/be27ed66e30f1a2cd04102740e2e24ec5272bb0d/src/Outsystems.SetupTools/Lib/ServiceCenterWebServices.ps1#L7

Feel free to PR with a fix if you want.

Thanks for the reply. Would you possibly have a fix for me to implement so it doesn't keep creating a New-WebServiceProxy on each request? We have a lot of modules so I would love to use this command. I am unsure what to change or update myself

[wartang]

Is someone able to provide a fix so the script re-uses the existing request instead of recreating it every time, causing it to eventually run out of memory?

[wartang]

Does anybody have a fix or a workaround for this out of memory issue yet? Hoping someone has an idea on how to run the publishing script since the number of modules are only increasing over time.
