Comment #9 on issue 4121 by [email protected]: Regression: Memory leak since at least 3.26.33
https://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=4121

I had the same issue of the heap snapshots being just a few mb while the process kept growing in size. Specifically, if you serve html files compiled by jade of around 12kb, a few thousand requests are enough to send the process to 500mb. And this number never goes down. It just keeps climbing until it hits the limit set by max-old-space.

Due to the low heap numbers, I assumed that in "reality" v8 was doing fine, but actually performance degraded a lot. I would suspect that GC now got triggered more often than it would at a process size of 20mb.

Also, regarding the idea suggested in #8, that sounds like an improvement for the mass creation of objects, but why, if you leave the process alone for a few minutes, has the current GC not cleared the leftovers?
