Anthony, should this block rolling out to release?

I'm probably not the best person to decide if leaking disk spare should block the release. I can find someone to look into it if someone can confirm that the issue still exists.

I didn't managed to reproduce this issue on Aurora(46.0a2). After the tab with the HD video is closed, the cached video is cleared and the memory is freed.
