What did you try?
I'm putting the following in an emacs -Q *scratch* buffer:

  (require 'treesit)
  (message "# of buffers before : %d" (length (buffer-list)))
  (dotimes-with-progress-reporter (i 10000) "Parsing"
    (treesit-parse-string "int c = 0;" 'c))
  (garbage-collect)
  (message "# of buffers after  : %d" (length (buffer-list)))

Each time I M-x eval-buffer:
- the list of buffers grows
- the memory usage grows
- loop iterations slow down noticeably

Am I missing something?
