Node.js Version(s)

22.15.0

Bug Report

We are deploying a standalone build of nextjs 15 with app router
It was working fine until we are on 5.37.1
Last month we upgraded it to 5.41.1 (then latest)
But we observed it caused memory leak in our application (issue1, issue2)
A few days ago, we upgraded to 5.48.1 to fix this leak
But the entire app gets unresponsive after an hour or so (reproducible on 5.49.0 too)

Reproduction Code

next.js ( reproducible on both 15.2 & 15.3) app router standalone output build

src/lib/tracer.ts

import tracer from "dd-trace"

// refer: https://docs.datadoghq.com/tracing/trace_collection/automatic_instrumentation/dd_libraries/nodejs/#typescript-and-bundlers

const ddtracer = tracer.init() // initialized in a different file to avoid hoisting
const provider = new ddtracer.TracerProvider()
provider.register()

export { default } from "dd-trace"

src/instrumenation.ts

// https://nextjs.org/docs/app/building-your-application/optimizing/instrumentation
// https://vercel.com/docs/observability/otel-overview
export async function register() {
  // To avoid errors with built-in modules not being defined https://github.com/vercel/next.js/discussions/16600#discussioncomment-7204740
  if (process.env.NEXT_RUNTIME === "nodejs") {
    if (process.env.DD_API_KEY) {
      await import("./lib/tracer") // must come before importing any instrumented module
    }
  }
}
