Hi Max, thanks for your help. I ran sIEve and pointed it the homepage of my application. It didn't detect any leak, but three cycle dependencies and an orphan. I cannot post the output of the scan because it's humongous! However, if I run "Auto-refresh" on my app for few seconds, I can see the memory usage increasing linearly with increments between 380Kb and 1500Kb per refresh. Meanwhile, the number of nodes used in the DOM never exceed 92.
At this point I suppose Trnidad is not leaking any memory, but somehow IE is not releasing memory while navigating through the pages of my app. I don't see this behaviour in IE if I "Auto-refresh" other websites (ex. google.com), where the memory used by IE is stable. I also have to correct my previous post: a deeper analysis shows me that Firefox is deallocating the memory correctly while using my app (too bad my client wants to use IE7). I don't know if this problem is worthed a deeper investigation.
