By 2x you mean the original bitmap + the texture cache in GL context?
The cache presumably has limited size and mostly contain textures for
images that have been displayed recently. Typically only a small
portion of all images on a web page are visible at a given time. The
real memory use should not be anywhere near 2x assuming the cache
works sensibly.
