      Creator roughly consumes 1kB of memory per search result. When a search will result in lots of hits, e.g. more than one and a million hits when searching for "int" in Creator's build directory, Creator will run out of memory and crash.

      It would be nice if the memory consumption could be reduced. Additionally, Creator might ask for confirmation if the number of results goes beyond a certain threshold. I don't think that any user will be able to handle more than a million search results.
