Hi, I work on Cypress (but not the multi domain feature).

I agree memory usage is an issue, I sure hope we can fix that. It's a hard problem with the frontend execution heavy model Cypress uses, along with the DOM snapshots consuming a ton of memory.

There is a `experimentalMemoryManagement` feature that might be of interest to you [0]. The reason this one is experimental is the implications are not fully understood yet, and as a mature software product, we can't just throw out a big feature and "see what happens", so to speak.

I understand not wanting to use experimental features, but this might be useful to your existing Cypress projects, even if you aren't using it for your new projects anymore.

Thanks for the info! I’ll check it out :)
