[OpenLayers-Users] Memory leak with Firefox?

hi,

I noticed a possible memory leak situation in my application using Firefox
28. I'm able to reproduce this with the fullscreen example
(http://openlayers.org/dev/examples/fullScreen.html).
While just panning around, the private bytes of the Firefox process are
constantly increasing (used Process Explorer on Windows). If you're doing
this for a few minutes it goes up to 2.5GB where Firefox crashes.

Checking against latest Google Chrome I did also see an increase of private
bytes, but after a few seconds of idle time (no panning action), that memory
is released again. That release never seems to happen in Firefox.
