           Summary: Memory leak due to circular reference Document-
                    >DOMTimer->ScheduledAction->[JS objects]->Document
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: HTML DOM
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: dimich at chromium.org


DOMTimer::stop() will stop the timer but not release the ScheduledAction which
holds to a JSFunction which can hold onto a bunch of JS wrappers They can keep
a reference back to Document that owns the DOMTimer. Hence, refcount on a
Document never goes to 0.
Fix is to delete the ScheduledAction in DOMTimer::stop().
