Memory leaks when developer tools are open in Chrome

[brgrz]

I finally nailed this down. AGM's memory consumption skyrockets when Chrome dev tools are opened. It'd go from 200 MB to 600 MB instantly and then after a few pans/zooms it would go to 800-1GB.

User experience quickly becomes a pain, UI starts freezing/hanging.

I have tested this with 2.1.6 and 2.2.1 with the Example project from source. The same happens when using the demo online.

What could this relate to? Some debug settings in AGM code?

I am not seeing this; I do see some memory not being collected but nothing as extreme as you state. I need more steps to reproduce. Help me help you.

I did several zoom in/outs and pans and generated 1000 clusters and non cluster markers. Memory never got over 430 MB. It did collect later on back down to 406MB.

I too can't reproduce it right now when I'm in a different user profile on my dev machine but I did notice it a lot before. Strange. Will continue to monitor the behavior.

Since you reference my issue I can only provide the following info : my memory goes through the roof because when I update the markers the old ones don't get destroyed. So my scope has 3 event handlers, then 6, then 9, 12 etc. Imagine that increase every half second and you got problem. Can you create a clearAll(); ? Thanks.

There is already a Plurals.clear via control. Which MarkersParent inherits. Also you guys really havent stated exactly which directive is your problem. I assume it is ui-gmap-markers but it could be ui-gmap-marker,

It does seem AngularJS Batarang is more stable then it has been in a while. I do see that some scopes are not cleaning up.

[nmccready]

To me looking at the scopes that are around it appears to be windows, or window lingering.

Thanks, i do use ui-gmap-markers. I don't know if brgrz has the same problem , maybe he can try and implement the Plurals.clear ?I will try to. About the windows, yes i do have infoWindows on all of my markers. (video showing the issue https://vid.me/7Mhp)

[nmccready]

To me markers does not appear to be a problem but if your using windows with it then you may have an issue.

[nmccready]

I am coming to these assumptions by looking at example.js/.html , all the leaky scopes have either show, isIconVisibleOnClick, or template which are all window stuff.

I found and fixed one of the leaks.
