Run the script above and the process starts leaking memory very

You know what a memory *leak* is, yes? mallocs() without proper free()s.
What you mean is that your memory is used. Feel free to calculate the
memory that is needed to store the string representation of
{0..150000000}, I think you will get a number near your RAM size.

instead. Consumes nearly no memory at all.
