I suspect that we leak an awful lot when the user clicks a link that is <a href="javascript:history.back()">Go back</a> We certainly seem to be leaving a nsSocketTransport around in this case.
Attached file Test case
Correction: we're leaving a nsFileTransport around, not a socket transport. And I don't have any data to suggest that other things are being leaked. However, this does mess up the in-use nsFileTransport count (see also bug 87861).
Summary: Leaks using history.back(); → Leaks using javascript:history.back();
Keywords: mlk
This was fixed by the checkin for bug 87861. There were no leaks, but the in-use file transport count was getting whacked.
