Format command causes fast memory congestion

  • Operating system: Ubuntu 16.04
  • Build version (signal-back --version): v0.1.7-alpha.2-dirty (proto commit: d6610f0)

Detailed description

Extract, check, and analyse commands work as intended, but format fills up the available memory quickly (no matter which format chosen). The backup file size is 1.8 GB, extracted media is 1.6 GB, on a machine with 8 GB of RAM.

Hm, it seems only the xml output is affected. I accidentally forgot the -f and had command lines such as signal-back format raw --pwdfile ../pwdfile ../signal.backup >> test.raw which caused the issue (and should be caught to not expose this issue), while after inserting the -f the issue is gone. However, for xml as output format, the issue still exists.
