           Summary: Google Reader creates AJAX-related memory leak
           Product: WebKit

          Platform: Macintosh
               URL: http://www.google.com/reader/

            Status: UNCONFIRMED

        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at opendarwin.org
        ReportedBy: tfo at alumni.brown.edu


I regularly use Google Reader as my RSS/Atom/XML feed reader. The functionality is fully supported in 
Safari, but when I go far enough back in time, Safari uses an incredible amount of memory.

I am currently paged down to about 1500 items in the feed history, and this is what I get from top -o 
rsize:

COMMAND      %CPU   TIME   #TH #PRTS #MREGS RPRVT  RSHRD  RSIZE  VSIZE
Safari       0.5%  1:57:35   9   272  2328   265M  93.6M   263M  3.36G

This is reproducible with Safari Version 2.0.2 (416.13).
