Created attachment 79101 [details] simple application which logs heap memory keeps piling on and on the more i browse the pages. Hi I made simple application which is also attached with this bug. I keep on browsing the sub link in the QWebView. To my surprise the heap memory keeps piling on and on the more i browse the pages. In the end I get the Out of memory error and application exit. PS: I am not able to get the webkit version. Its the default which comes with the Nokia QT SDK 4.6.3. If there is the way to determine, let me know I will add in the comment to confirm. Find below the log: alloc:3222332 size:3469192 limit:33554432 alloc:4772800 size:5668744 limit:33554432 alloc:7010148 size:7749512 limit:33554432 alloc:8695448 size:9830280 limit:33554432 alloc:10248696 size:11911048 limit:33554432 alloc:10239992 size:11911048 limit:33554432 alloc:10175320 size:11911048 limit:33554432 alloc:11784736 size:13545352 limit:33554432 alloc:11832884 size:13545352 limit:33554432 alloc:11964388 size:13545352 limit:33554432 alloc:12305164 size:13545352 limit:33554432 alloc:12145552 size:15626120 limit:33554432 alloc:12393804 size:15626120 limit:33554432 alloc:12088676 size:16662408 limit:33554432

Heap memory can grow for a number of reason: -font cache -pixmap cache Due to the poor quality of some memory measurement tools, we do not accept reports that do not contain detailed information about the leak. Please include one of the following: -type of objects leaking -call site where memory is allocated but never freed
