\Drupal\Core\Entity\Query\QueryBase never goes out of scope

Problem/Motivation

\Drupal\Core\Entity\Query\QueryBase and it's children never get destroyed. This is because it's constructor calls \Drupal\Core\Entity\Query\QueryBase::conditionGroupFactory which stores $query (\Drupal\Core\Entity\Query\ConditionFundamentals::__construct) resulting in them never going out of scope (I think).

This causes problems for long running processes such as a Drupal Console Command as, over time, you leak memory.

Proposed resolution

Not sure what the solution is, but from what I can see, the only time $query is used is in \Drupal\Core\Entity\Query\Sql\Condition::compile for:

$tables = $this->query->getTables($sql_query);

Remaining tasks

Work out if we can fix this.

User interface changes

None.

API changes

Unkown.

Data model changes

None.
