The Leak Monitor add-on is fairly good at weeding out leaks.

I installed that extension in FF 3.7 + Firebug 1.55a22pre. I opened
gmail and reloaded the page. After that was complete, I opened a new
tab and closed the gmail tab.

I got a lot of pop up alerts. Some were empty, some had stuff. Some
with stuff listed "window" as leaked; some listed elements.

Now what? I did not see anything that helped me find a problem.

The CPU part of this issue has been fixed and the fix will be in
Firebug 1.5a22. gmail.com load times reduced from ~90sec to ~7sec.
Details in the blog post update, the issue reference in the blog post,
and the bugzilla bug referenced in the issue.
