node-scraper doesnt seem to be closing the jsdom window it creates. And honestly dont see a way to do so expect you play around with the node-scraper module yourself to fix this issue.
Not even sure if that is the problem, but i had a similar issue working with plain jsdom, and not closing the "window" that contains the whole DOM-Tree was the reason.
