Stack-Trace
Run with export ASAN_OPTIONS=hard_rss_limit_mb=1000
On my machine it takes around 10 seconds to reach the RSS limit.
Unfortunately, I can't find a way to tell ASAN to log each malloc to figure out
whats going on, but running the original fuzzing test case with the libfuzzer
-trace_malloc=2 flag, I found that the allocations happen here:

It doesn't look like we ever exit out of the loop in timerlist_run_timers, ie timer_list->active_timers is always True.
