Bug #17089

RTE causes memory leak under Firefox
0%
Description
When editing content elements using the RTE FF (Version 2.0.0.2) allcates about 1 to 1.5 MB of memory on for each instance of the RTE.
This memory is not freed upon closing the RTE or even closing the whole FF tab. My FF allocates more than 300MB right at the moment and is awfully slow.
RTE works fine with IE7.

Hm, I guess this is related to many, many event handlers registered by RTEhtmlarea. Nearly each icon or any click behaviour has an own event listener and event handler.

I am not sure to what version of the RTE this issue was referring to, but after upgrading to SVN TYPO3core branch TYPO3_4-2 revision 3419, there is no significant memory leakage in FF2, FF3, IE7 and Opera 9.5. Some remains in Safari 3.0.4.
