Subject: [jQuery] Advice on sIEve/Drip

 

While debugging my application (which makes heavy use of jQuery), after several hours IE had consumed about 300MB.

 

So I figure I’ve got some memory leaks.

 

I tried sIEve 0.8 and wasn’t able to find anything specific that was leaking or causing problems.  I tried the system, dragged things around, opened various popups, etc.  Basically used a while series of functions on the CMS.  No leaks reported at any time.

 

I then pulled up one of heavier js pages and put it auto-refresh for about 10 minutes.  It slowly went from 61MB to 66MB over a 10 minute period.

 

At no point during the auto-refresh, or during the other stages when I was actually using the system, dragging things around, etc. were any specific leaks reported.

 

Are there other actions I can take to track down the problem?

 

I noticed that sIEve/Drop hasn’t been updated in over 2 years, so I’m guessing it’s not a maintained project.  Is there a better alternative?
