I believe a timeout after a few seconds would go a long way here.
Perhaps even setting a memory limit could work.

Both of these solutions should be better than having plasmashell restart.

Forgot to mention, I have reported this bug to libqalculate.

runners/calculator: set timeout to prevent allocating huge memory

This is not exactly a memory leak. The extreme expression simply
requires huge amounts of memory to calculate.

The calculator runner is problematic since it does not specify
a time limit for calculations, and does not even abort
calculations after the window has been closed
(a simple example of this is the expression 123456789!).

Fixes https://github.com/Qalculate/libqalculate/issues/527
FIXED-IN: 5.27.5
