I have a web app that causes IE 6 use a lot of memory over time. I'm trying
to isolate what part of my web app is causing the leaking, so I've been
working on creating small HTML pages that represent certain aspects of my app
and seeing if they cause the IE process size to grow.
The problem is that I have created a trivial page --- a page with a a body,
text inside the body (about 25k of plain text for what that's worth) and
that's all. When I do refresh on this page repeatedly and observe Windows
Task Manager I see the Mem Usage grow from 55793K to 128588K over about a
half hour.
I have used windows update to make sure IE6 has the current fixes.
Is this normal IE 6 behavior? Shouldn't I see the mem usage level off or go
down at some point? Maybe IE is continuing to use more memory since there is
plenty available on the PC? Is there a better approach for figuring out
why/how my app is leaking?
