Ok,
netvibes.com is a rss aggregator with ajax functionality. you can add rss panels which contain the feeds. These panels update automatically at set periods of time. mozilla leaks badly and if a browser window is left open over night will 'grow' to 500mb of memory and become unusable on my system.
using the nightly test extensions built in leak-gauge

Could be happening because of bug 206520.
But the only way to find out for sure is to have a simple testcase that shows the leak.

trying to track this down better.
relivant javascript files (i think)
http://netvibes.com/modules/rssReader/rssReader.js
http://www.netvibes.com/js/App.js
in App.js
var proxyURL = NV_PATH+'xmlProxy.php?url=';
var Request = new Object();
Request.send = function(url, method, callback, data, urlencoded) {
var req;
if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {
req = new XMLHttpRequest();
} else if (window.ActiveXObject) {
req = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}
req.onreadystatechange = function() {
if (req.readyState == 4) {// only if req shows "loaded"
if (req.status < 400) {// only if "OK"
(method=="POST") ? callback(req) : callback(req,data);
} else {
alert("There was a problem loading data :\n" + req.status+ "/" + req.statusText);
}
}
}
if (method=="POST") {
req.open("POST", url, true);
if (urlencoded) req.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded');
req.send(data);
} else {
req.open("GET", url, true);
req.send(null);
}
return req;
}
Request.sendRawPOST = function(url, data, callback) {
Request.send(url, "POST", callback, data, false);
}
Request.sendPOST = function(url, data, callback) {
Request.send(url, "POST", callback, data, true);
}
Request.sendGET = function(url, callback, args) {
return Request.send(url, "GET", callback, args);
}
then each feed is called with
Request.sendGET(proxyURL+escape(feedUrl), checkFeed);
i guess waiting for the fix for 321054 to be checked in.

Could you retest in tomorrow's trunk build?
If it still exists, leak-monitor ( http://dbaron.org/mozilla/leak-monitor ) may provide some useful information.

I still leak 1 document and 1 window after having visited vibes.com with the 2006-05-26 trunk build.
