The reason I ask is because I thought there were some concerns about
leaks

seen firefox and iceweasel light up my disk on very simple things

typing stuff into forms). As I started looking through the code,
one of the first things I saw was something that looked like a hash
table
of previously used pages- are there static "junk bins" of strong
references
and stuff like that that could create memory leaks as they
accumulate stuff
and never get cleaned or pruned?
We try to fix leaks when we find out about them. I suspect there are
some in the code now.
I don't know what you mean about "junk bins". Content from previously
used pages would be in either the resource memory cache or the page
cache, both of which are capped in size.
Help diagnosing and fixing leaks (and "pseudo-leaks" from ever-growing
referenced data structures) is always welcome.
