I tested with a debug build of ToT on Mac OS X 10.6

I don't know about memory growth but it does hang browser tab and show banner that "this page was reloaded..." after few seconds. Chrome Canary 106 crash this and show "Aw Snap" faster than Safari and crashes tab as well while Firefox Nightly 105 show warning banner that "this page is slowing down Nightly...". Is this relevant or we need to something? or we can mark this as "RESOLVED LATER"? Thanks!

This got much worse than before, I see memory growth to at least 5GB before the tab gets killed.

But maybe the test is buggy, and Firefox used to have some bug that canceled that out?

By the way - Firefox Nightly 105 also crashed a generated this crash report: https://crash-stats.mozilla.org/report/index/74dfc1b6-45f4-42a2-a8d9-8c4e30220801 Might be some interest to you. Thanks!
