Thank you for the explanation Till.
I believe the lack of previous complaints is because this happens in a
pretty unique conditions (very high MaxJobs and large batches of jobs).
The test case however was based on a real-life scenario reported to me.

I have raised the default LogDebugHistory some years ago as most
printing problems happen during the execution of a job and this way one
gets a logging with debug verbosity only for jobs and standard verbosity
for all the rest. This way one often did not need to ask the bug-
reporting users to repr
In a recent test with MaxJobs of 4 I was easily able to reach over
65 GB of memory consumption within 60 mins, while with LogDebugHistory
set to 0 the consumption was below 400 MB.
My recommendation is to lower the default LogDebugHistory value back to
what is upstream: 200.

** Description changed:
Under heavy workload conditions cups can reach irrationally high memory
consumption very quickly (tens of GBs).
Test case:
1. Set MaxJobs to 4 in cupsd.conf.
2. sudo apt install cups-pdf
3. Fill the queue with jobs:
while [ 1 ]; lp -d PDF /usr/share/cup
After some analysis I believe the very high default value of
LogDebugHistory (9) is to blame for this (attaching massif report
from the test case).
With a high number of jobs it's very easy to get hunderds-thousands of messages
in LogDebugHistory which in turn will lead to enormous memory con
