<pre>Just now I killed a couple of NetworkProcess:
* First one, compiled from my JHBuild. Lot's of tabs. It was claiming ~90Gb in VIRT memory.
* Second one, from the Debian Testing package. One single and simple tab, it was claiming ~30Gb in VIRT memory.
When closing every of them, several Gbs of memory were freed from RAM and swap. I really think there has to be some leak. Maybe in the NetworkProcess, maybe in the WebProcess, as I killed it also afterwards and also frees tons of memory but it is clear to me that the memory consumption keeps growing with time without the need of doing much interaction.</pre>
