On macOS with webrendest enabled and layers.force-active. We'll eventually use up 768MB of RGBA texture cache when this happens performance goes in the trash.

I'm going to hijack this bug into a general memory usage metabug. If the thing in comment 0 is still a problem we can spin it out into a new concrete bug.
https://github.com/servo/webrender/pull/2941 might help, it makes it more likely for a texture cache entry to get evicted soon when it's image key is deleted. That said the eviction strategy in the texture cache does not take available/consumed memory into account in any way so there must be ways to improve there.
Bug 1479939 might also help here.
