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.
