mrobinson pointed out on IRC that after fixing Bug 80509 the GTK port passes the stress test https://cvs.khronos.org/svn/repos/registry/trunk/public/webgl/sdk/tests/conformance/context/context-creation-and-destruction.html ,, although it runs slowly -- and they were running on NVIDIA hardware, e.g. a real GPU. So it's possible there is a dangling pointer in the Chromium implementation that prevents these resources from being collected efficiently.

Still worth investigating when the Canvas and WebGLRenderingContext objects are GC'd in this example in other ports, and whether making WebGLRenderingContext an ActiveDOMObject would improve the situation.
