Problem description
UDFs using the Protegrity plugin with the bulk methods `bprotect` and `bunprotect` have a memory problem starting with Exasol 6.1.0, leading to hanging processes and swapping systems.

Workaround
Customers should use the non-bulk versions `protect` and `unprotect` in the Protegrity UDFs instead of their block-oriented counter parts.
