As hinted at elsewhere, I've been trying to track down a memory leak issue in IE7 and 0.7.x.
It appears that any remote request using XMLHttpRequest leaks memory in IE7. In a testcase running here, a regular operation (polling the server) which has around 5 POST requests sent off in quick succession consumes 170 KB. That's around 35 KB per request. Leaving IE running overnight, with the poll interval set at 10 seconds (way faster than normal) took memory consumption from 218 MB to 668 MB. The amount of data transferred is only 10s of bytes. It's fine in Opera and Firefox - memory use doesn't budge. You can see it in the FeedReader demo at http://demo.qooxdoo.org/current/feedreader/ Every press of the Reload button adds between 400 KB and 800 KB to the memory consumption of IE7 as shown in Task Manager. The fact that other browsers are OK implies that I don't have a program error. Perhaps some IE-specific code in the qooxdoo implementation of the remote request is causing the problem.
