+'ing until we have more info.  bent, can you take a look at this and make a blocking suggestion if needed?

So the standard two questions:

Tomcat: Can you get this leak to grow? For example, does recording on multiple pages cause more pages to leak?

Alex: How popular is this extension?

Unless it's popular and the leak grows I don't think this is a blocker.

< 2k users, do not block.
