Possible Memory leak bug

[RehArk]

I create a crc32 hash of file with await createCRC32();. After many hash, i have the following error "out of memory". I suspect a bug because i found nothing on documentation to destroy the hash.

I use the following code to compute the checksum of several thousand files:

async calculateChecksum(file: File /* UppyFile for reproduction */): Promise<string> {
  const CHUNK_SIZE = 10 * 1024 ** 2; // 10 MB
  const blob = file.data;
  let offset = 0;

  const crc32 = await createCRC32();
  crc32.init();

  while (offset < blob.size) {
    const chunk = blob.slice(offset, offset + CHUNK_SIZE);
    const buffer = await chunk.arrayBuffer();
    crc32.update(new Uint8Array(buffer));
    offset += CHUNK_SIZE;
  }

  return crc32.digest();
}

When I use a custom implementation of createCRC32, like this:

function createCRC32(): Promise<{
  init: () => void;
  update: (data: Uint8Array) => void;
  digest: () => string;
}> {
  const CRC32_TABLE = new Uint32Array(256);

  for (let i = 0; i < 256; i++) {
    let c = i;
    for (let j = 0; j < 8; j++) {
      c = c & 1 ? 0xEDB88320 ^ (c >>> 1) : c >>> 1;
    }
    CRC32_TABLE[i] = c;
  }

  let crc = 0xFFFFFFFF;

  return Promise.resolve({
    init: () => {
      crc = 0xFFFFFFFF;
    },
    update: (data: Uint8Array) => {
      for (let i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
        const byte = data[i];
        crc = CRC32_TABLE[(crc ^ byte) & 0xFF] ^ (crc >>> 8);
      }
    },
    digest: () => {
      return ((crc ^ 0xFFFFFFFF) >>> 0).toString(16).padStart(8, '0');
    },
  });
}

everything works fine — memory usage stays stable even with thousands of files.

However, when I use createCRC32 from the "hash-wasm" package:

import { createCRC32 } from "hash-wasm";

I quickly run into an "out of memory" error.

I cannot reproduce it with node.js v22.14.
I used this script:

import fs from "fs/promises";
import { Blob } from "buffer";
import { createCRC32 } from "hash-wasm";

async function calculateChecksum(file) {
  const CHUNK_SIZE = 10 * 1024 ** 2; // 10 MB
  const blob = file.data;
  let offset = 0;

  const crc32 = await createCRC32();
  crc32.init();

  while (offset < blob.size) {
    const chunk = blob.slice(offset, offset + CHUNK_SIZE);
    const buffer = await chunk.arrayBuffer();
    crc32.update(new Uint8Array(buffer));
    offset += CHUNK_SIZE;
  }

  return crc32.digest();
}

async function main() {
  const filepath = "package.json";
  const fileBuffer = await fs.readFile(filepath);
  const blob = new Blob([fileBuffer]);

  const uppyFile = {
    data: blob,
    name: "sample.bin",
    size: blob.size,
  };

  const checksum = await calculateChecksum(uppyFile);
  return checksum;
}

let res;
for (let i = 0; i < 100000; i++) {
  res = await main();
}
console.log(res);

Could you help me with a codesandbox link or a zip that reproduces it?

It seems to only happen on the Firefox browser. I'm trying to understand where it's coming from, but with plain Node or Chromium, I don't have this issue.
I'm checking the browser inspector but not seeing anything out of the ordinary.
