DisplayLinkUserAgent 10.14.5 clamshell mode memory leak

Hi guys, I have quite a problem with memory leak.
DisplayLinkUserAgent uses just too much RAM over short period of time. And not only that
As I am currently using clamshell mode, I have to switch between extended and mirrored display quite often (after restart, or after quitting program that is using GPU, otherwise it just lags and has severe glitches)
Probably that is triggering also this memory leak, after just 5 days of not restarting, just going into sleep mode, that process had almost 5GB of RAM used, from 5MB after fresh boot (currently, uptime around 10 minutes, using 14MB)

Do you have similar issues with this process? Is there any solution or workaround? Can I kill it and restart it somehow without needing to restart whole computer?
