@walter-erquinigo: I assume, by "module cache", you meant the global module list accessible by `ModuleList::GetSharedModule()` and `ModuleList::GetSharedModuleList()`.
I think destroying the debugger will NOT free it (which I think is the desired behavior). Verified by the commands below, where the memory address of the `Module` object of the main executable didn't change (as printed by the `-p` flag) after the first session has terminated.
```
// Server mode.
// 1st session, after target creation.
(lldb) image list -u -p -f -S -g

...
// 2nd session, before target creation (as init command).
