[webkit-dev] Huge Memory Leak: How to restrict?

[Dhananjoy Chutia]

Hi,
    I had carried out one experiment with GtkLauncher, by loading and
unloading a page at interval of 2 seconds. I observed VmSize of GtkLauncher
at interval of one minute. Memory is increased gradually. Here is my
observation result.

*NOTE: **WebKit-r39293 is configure with the options: --with-target=x11
--with-http-backend=soup

Can any one provide a solution to restrict the memory requirement?
