Description:
MySQL Workbench crashes when preforming SQL statements. Also when using right click context menus, such as querying a table, the application hangs indefinitely and eventually eats up all of the available physical and swap memory, MySQL Workbench tried using 56GB of memory.

How to repeat:
Run MySQL Workbench on macOS Sierra 10.12.4 Beta (16E191a)
Create a DB connection
Right click a table from one of the schemas
Choose "Select Rows - Limit 1000"
- Endless hang

Another is to add/remove/edit a table's columns via the wrench icon that appears when hovering over a table in the schema list
Click Apply
Application crashes

Doesn't seem like it's "always" repeatable

When I run 'check for updates', "You are already using the latest version of MySQL Workbench." So... there are no updates for me?

Ah, got it. Just downloaded it from the site instead.

Try to download 6.3.9 from https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/workbench/. Thanks.
