Closing for lack of feedback and the likely fact that it's a Node.js issue.

Not sure whether this has anything todo with the memory leak, but the processes I tried to kill with --force were not actually terminated (or perhaps restarted).

I have a feeling there's a bug in https://github.com/mokkabonna/inquirer-autocomplete-prompt that adds too many keypress listeners. // @mokkabonna
