Playtests Increase Loading Time + RAM Usage Drops Over Time

After each consecutive playtest in Studio, my game’s loading time increases. The first load is fast, but with each test afterward, the load time gets longer and longer — sometimes doubling or tripling. This isn’t just happening to me — other developers on my team are experiencing the exact same issue.

For clarity, the loading time screenshots I’m sharing below were all taken from the same Roblox Studio instance, without restarting Studio between tests.

FYI I’m not running any plugins.

Expected behavior

If everything were working correctly, I would expect subsequent playtests to either maintain the same loading speed.
