Hi all,

I've been trying to fix some memory leaks in my app. As I was
stripping the code down I discovered that even on a totally blank page
that includes jQuery, memory is leaked. If you point Drip at the
jquery.com homepage you'll see quite a few elements left around after
the page unloads.

It seems to be mostly stuff in jquery.support (script tags, anchor
tags, divs) that are used to test browser capabilities.

Is this a known issue? Is there any workaround?

It seems to be the removeChild calls causing most of it (but removing
them obviously laves random elements in the dom).

Our app is likely to be kept open in the browser for the entire day,
with a lot of page loads, so we're keen to address any memory leaks.

Any ideas what I can do about this?
