Given that we cant use -g 1 and no change on caller side,

is there any way to perform gc upon each .z.pg?

I initially have

.z.pg:{ bigresult: value x; .Q.gc[]; bigresult };

but the memory is not going down until next smaller query.

Is there a reason you cannot use -g 1 ?

Running .Q.gc[] so often is not the best approach but if you needed to a timer could check and run if after .z.pg for you:

runGC:0b
.z.pg:{ bigresult: value x;runGC::1b; bigresult };
.z.ts:{if[runGC;.Q.gc[];runGC::0b]}
\t 1

To run it less often you could set a threshold and in the if statement check memory usage

perform gc per .z.pg
