When loading https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=920837 in Epiphany while logged in to the bugzilla, about half of the time, the WebKitWebProcess will start gobbling up RAM.

I'm seeing this as well. 

Note that this seems to be webkt2 particular (epiphany is now using webkit2). 

I also see it with midori using webkit2.
