To prevent races with the garbage collector, stack spans cannot be reused as heap spans during a GC. We deal with this by caching stack spans during GC and releasing them at the end of mark termination. However, while our cache lets us reuse small stack spans, currently large stack spans are *not* reused. This can cause significant memory growth in programs that allocate large stacks rapidly, but grow the heap slowly (such as in issue #13552). Fix this by adding logic to reuse large stack spans for other stacks. Fixes #11466. Fixes #13552. Without this change, the program in this issue creeps to over 1GB of memory over the course of a few hours. With this change, it stays rock solid at around 30MB.

The Go Programming Language
Go is an open source programming language that makes it easy to build simple, reliable, and efficient software.
For documentation about how to install and use Go, visit https://golang.org/ or load doc/install-source.html in your web browser.
Our canonical Git repository is located at https://go.googlesource.com/go. There is a mirror of the repository at https://github.com/golang/go.
Go is the work of hundreds of contributors. We appreciate your help!
To contribute, please read the contribution guidelines: https://golang.org/doc/contribute.html
Note that we do not accept pull requests and that we use the issue tracker for bug reports and proposals only. Please ask questions on https://forum.golangbridge.org or https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/golang-nuts.
Unless otherwise noted, the Go source files are distributed under the BSD-style license found in the LICENSE file.

Binary Distribution Notes
If you have just untarred a binary Go distribution, you need to set the environment variable $GOROOT to the full path of the go directory (the one containing this file). You can omit the variable if you unpack it into /usr/local/go, or if you rebuild from sources by running all.bash (see doc/install-source.html). You should also add the Go binary directory $GOROOT/bin to your shell's path.
For example, if you extracted the tar file into $HOME/go, you might put the following in your .profile:
export GOROOT=$HOME/go
export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin
See https://golang.org/doc/install or doc/install.html for more details.
