What format are these videos?  Flash or html5?  (Not looking at an nsfw site (thanks for the heads up))

A few more follow up questions:
How much memory is leaked over how much time?

Which platform is this observed on? Is this reproducible on Nightly?

Would you mind finding a regression range[0]?

Sorry for the delay was on PTO.
It leaked like 20GB of memory - It was very reproducible on nightly. They changed something since and the issue doesn't occur anymore.
