Issues when importing a large taxonomy

[ChrisChV]

When importing a large taxonomy, like the Light Cast Taxonomy, it takes a long time (10-15min+) for the /import request to complete successfully. In some cases, it takes longer, and the memory usage fills up resulting in the cms container restarting.

When that happens, we get the alert error, however we can see the imported taxonomy in the list, containing all the tags. For smaller taxonomies (like two level and languages) it works fine, and medium sized (like FlatTaxonomy) it takes 3-4min to complete successfully.

• Check the problem further and provide a solution

Thanks for reporting this @yusuf-musleh and @ChrisChV. The memory usage should be more or less constant, and not increase with the size of the taxonomy. So we definitely need to fix it.
