(To be specific, individual allocations can be freed, but the pages are never returned to the OS. Looked at the source to verify this…)

Hmm, maybe it’s intended, because Xcode forcibly disables the nano allocator. But that sure seems like questionable behavior: no pages ever returned to the OS unless you add an undocumented flag to your Info.plist?

O_o Sounds like this is something we should fix in Firefox too? Bug on file?

*Never* freed seems too strong. “Not freed until program exit” looks more accurate. Very different things.

Technically. But it’s never freed in the steady state where one always has ones browser open until restart or power off. My laptop has been up 16 days and it looks like Chrome is using >~14GiB (140 helpers ~100MiB each). These windows/tabs all reopen when I restart my laptop.
