Memory leak?

[Simon Platten]

I'm pushing data using node.js to the client and updating a time series plot.  The graph is limited to the number of points it can show, I remove data from the beginning of the array when it reaches the limit I'm imposed.

When monitoring system resources I see the memory usage steadily increasing, I'm not sure if this is an issue with Firefox or the graphs, I will experiment with other browsers and report back.

Its worse in Opera.

In Chrome, the graphs don't even render...which is probably something I've done, however I have it working in Firefox, Opera, IE and Safari.

It could be an issue with the way the foreignobject tag is implemented, as in Safari, like Chrome, the graphs won't render.

Hi Carl,

To test this, set-up a time series plot that gets data 50 samples to plot every 2 seconds, then leave it plotting for a while, the memory should steadily ramp up.  I used firefox, just leaving 4 graphs running for a hour ramped up to over a 1GB of memory.

Hi Carl,

This is a real problem, can't leave a browser up for more than  2 hours without it crashing as it quickly runs out of memory.  Any suggestions on what tools I could use to try and find this leak?

Thank you,
Simon

Chrome dev tools has some has some good CPU and memory profiling capabilities.  I'd start there.
