Update, Have updated dongle-e to 7.4.2, and the zigbee2mqtt memory leak has gone.

this is what it looked before

@Outsidewall , I seem to have a similar memory/stability issue with my dongle-e on 7.3 firmware with ezsp driver
How are your impressions after running 7.4 with ember since updating? Is the network stable, any glitches? Did you have to re-pair devices? How big is your network if you don't mind me asking)

Hello @theorlangur, I updated to 7.4.2 and used the ember driver setting in z2m, no repairing needed. Also loaded the latest version of z2m. All working well, no memory leak, and so far reliable. Network is about 130 devices.
