This PR adds a clearPicsCache() function to reduce memory usage if content is not needed anymore.
In order for the garbage collector to instantly free the memory being used we need to filter the
jobs
object.I added a
type
property to everyjobs
entry which stores theEMsg
value of the associated request. This allows us to only filter PICS related entries instead of needing to nuke the whole object.Related forum thread:

Note: I updated the documentation but I didn't fill out the required version as I don't know which version number you'll choose
