ok i see the memory leak now

its only when you publish and only on the server side

i was able to fix the memory leak by doing

    local dummy = game.ServerStorage.Dummy:Clone()
    dummy.Parent = workspace
    task.wait()
    dummy:Destroy()

if you destroy after the wait then it will no longer have a memory leak

but you should still report this bug to roblox because it should not do that

Because when a humanoid is created it loads all the neccary things for it to work and as the loop does not give enough time for it to load and destroys it then it restarts and the memory keeps going up
