Actually it is on my list of things to work on today. Can't promise anything will be fixed today but I'll be working on it. :)

Our application is heavyish, > uses lots of jquery-ui dialogs, and runs within one html page for long > times without reloading. We're starting to have problems with IE (7), > its memory consumption grows quite fast while using the app, and it > quickly becomes sluggish to use. > > I've created a simple test page at http://linux.kytomaki.com/jqtest/. > It creates empty jquery-ui dialogs and then immediately destroys them. > The test uses jquery-svn-trunk rev 6320 and jquery-ui 1.7.1. > > Monitoring memory usage from Windows XP task manager: > > On IE 7 consumption starts from 38M after loading the page. After > creating and destroying a dialog 100 times on one run, the consumption > ends up to 72M. Refreshing the page doesn't seem to have effect on it. > Minimizing and restoring the IE window takes mem to 10M, after which > refresh of the page takes it to 44M. Doing another 100 dialog create- > destroy-cycles takes it to 73M. > > With IE 8, mem usage starts from 21M. 100 create-destroy-cycles takes > it to 55M, so again memory seems to be leaked. This time, page reload > frees some memory bringing it to 30M, but now the page minimize- > restore-trick doesn't to do anything. Freeing memory by reload doesn't > help our case, since the app works within one page that shouldn't be > reloaded. > --- clip --- > > As suggested in the original thread, I've updated the example (http:// > linux.kytomaki.com/jqtest/) with calls to CollectGarbage() and set IE8 > compatibility mode to IE=edge, but the problem remains (and obviously > IE8 compatibility mode wouldn't fix the problem on IE7). > > This problem might be related to bug http://dev.jquery.com/ticket/4241, > also discussed in http://dev.jqueryui.com/ticket/4188 and more > recently in > http://groups.google.com/group/jquery-dev/browse_thread/thread/12ab14b05d3f6cfb. > #4241 hasn't been updated in a while, is it still being investigated? > > Anything else we might try to get around this problem? > > -Janne > > > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "jQuery Development" group.
