I wouldn't bet on it. The core of OpenLayers -- that is, the pieces that we use in lite.html, and the pieces that MetaCarta needs in order to build our Geographic Search client -- have been thoroughyl debugged for memory issues, but a number of the controls, layers, etc. may not have been. (There's still an open ticket for memory management review -- but it's been open for 10 months, and is not a very high priority.) Set up an OpenLayers instance with the same layers, controls, etc. as the one inside Mapbuilder in OL-integration has before you let us off the hook -- if you can create a pure OpenLayers example, it can be filed as a bug against 2.5, and although I can't claim it will neccesarily be a release stopper, there is some time at work devoted to just working on bugs.
