Nodelet runs out of memory and dies
Describe the bug Nodelet runs out of memory, consuming 14G (out of 16G) of ram and 10G of swap before being killed by the OOM killer. Exact message:

@doggo4242 Thanks for reporting the problem? But how long it takes before you run into the nodelet runs out of memory?
Do you have other nodes running besides Ouster's driver nodelets? Could you try to disable the generation of point cloud via by removing the flag PCL and see if the problem still occurs.
No. I disabled it, same issue. Output is as follows:

No that's a different issue, I don't see an out of memory problem in the last log
Where did you get the idea that the process is dying because of an out of memory problem? I don't see that in the logs you provided.
There are multiple case where the following issue occurs:
FATAL] [1708996967.972998309]: Failed to load nodelet '/ouster/os_driver` of type `ouster_ros/OusterDriver` to manager `os_nodelet_mgr'
================================================================================REQUIRED process [ouster/os_nodelet_mgr-2] has died!
I would gdb or verbose logging and see what that may yield.
My kernel logs say as much.
You need to build the driver with Debug or RelWithDebugInfo build type and then run it with GDB enabled for the nodelet / nodelet manger
Couldn't get the driver to run properly under debug mode, but here's a screenshot of the kernel logs showing the OOM killer killing nodelet.

Never mind, got it running under gdb. Same output, no logs:
