I've read the rest of this thread and understand the argument but how
memory hungry does Emacs get when enabling tree-sitter?  As far as I
vaguely remember from the original tree-sitter inclusion discussion,
tree-sitter used about the same memory as the buffer did for smallish
files.  Even more vaguely, I remember opening xdisp.c with tree-sitter
enabled shot up the memory usage to an unacceptable limit by my
computer's standards.
As someone with a mere 4G of RAM and 4G of swap space, I'm wondering if
enabling tree-sitter will make my laptop even more memory hungry than it
already can be when stressed [1].


[1] This happens when I have a lot of tabs open in Chromium+a handful of
20~100M PDF files opened in Emacs via pdf-tools.
