[webkit-dev] caching /memory leak... browsing images

[Purushottam Sholapur]

Hi All,

I am using webkit on davinci platform, with QT. We have 150MB of RAM,
If I use browser for 15-20 minutes. Entire memory is exhausted. There is no
other
application running. This is happening more with webpages having bigger
images. I am
browsing http://www.images.google.com

I tried with QtLauncher and Qt demo/browser, behavior is same.
I tried with latest nightly webkit build also. (on 9th Mar '09), same
result.
Not sure where it is caching or leaking.

Tried dumping Cache statistics periodically using.
    Cache * cp = cache();
    cp->dumpStats();

It initially prints like this ....
            Count       Size        LiveSize    DecodedSize PurgeableSize
PurgedSize

Images                3      210215      210215      186976
