Is there somewhere I should file this as a bug? @nilshg ?

Ok, it looks probably related to this, so I reported it here:

[https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/42566](https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/42566)

which is also linked from: [Memory issue when repeatedly creating large DataFrames · Issue #2902 · JuliaData/DataFrames.jl · GitHub](https://github.com/JuliaData/DataFrames.jl/issues/2902)
