I am experiencing a slow memory leak in both IE and Firefox using a combination of ASP.NET AJAX and jQuery. My scenario is very similar to the one described here : Preventing AJAX memory leaks except using jquery and asp.net AJAX, not protyotype: I have a webpage displaying data in an UpdatePanel that is refreshed every 60 seconds using a timer. in the AJAX javascript pageLoad function that is called on every "partial postback", I re-bind events because they are lost in the asp.net partial postback:
function pageLoad(sender, args) {
$("#item").unbind();
$("#item").hover(
function() {
// do something
},
function() {
// do something
});
}
so this is called every 60 seconds. Could this alone be the cause of a memory leak?
