Build ID: 20140127194636

Steps to reproduce:

Put an MJPEG stream URL into the adress bar and start the MJPEG stream. Problem happen both on Linux and Windows version of Firefox 27.

Here a public webcam link that can be used to reproduce the probleme: http://212.24.177.174:8092/mjpg/video.mjpg


Actual results:

After few seconds/minutes depending on the size of the picture in the MJPEG streams, the RAM memory is used at 100%, and the computer become almost unusable.
If i succeed to close the tab containing the stream, the memory is freed and everything become normal.



Expected results:

No memory leak when playing MJPEG stream.
