Jens,

Thanks so much for your suggestions!

I wonder why it works fine according to Activity Monitor if such a huge leak
exists. The consumed memory in the Activity Monitor is stable and much
smaller unless some threads are created at a high concurrent moment. After
the threads are dead, the consumed memory becomes stable and small. I feel
weird for this.

Best,
Bing
