Research direction
First, confirm the memory bug still exists in the latest commit of ChromeDevTools/devtools frontend by building and testing it with an initial React Native project. If confirmed, search the Chromium bug tracker for existing reports related to high memory usage in DevTools since Chromium 59. The issue is linked to PR #130 and the troubleshooting docs. Compile findings and report a new Chromium bug if none exists.
