Elements loaded via AJAX are not deleted unless they are refreshed by 
another ajax load.  When refreshed by another ajax load the old elements 
are replaced by the new elements -- but only if they have the same 'id' 
attribute.  If you have a long-lived app with a lot of page-frags/views 
being loaded you have a potential memory problem.  To avoid this you'll 
have to find a way to assign a unique id to each element that is 
loaded.  If  it's content from a database you could generate the id from 
the record id (e.g. id="widget4039")  This will at least reduce the use 
of DOM elements to unique records.

iUI could fairly easily be extended to unload DOM elements when no 
longer needed (or even to use them as a client side cache)  If you are 
interested in doing that you should definitely start with the 
development versions of iUI 0.40.  There is an event mechanism to 
support extensions that should make this feature fairly easy to 
implement.  It is something I would very much like to see.  If someone 
builds a nice extension with this feature I could easily see that 
feature being migrated into the core.
