Memory leaks when manipulating images in Chrome

I encountered the following 2 (huge!) memory leaks in Chrome:

When editing the 'src' of an existing image, with new bytes
When using clone() to clone an image

Note that in Internet Explorer there is NO memory leak what so ever!

Some background: I'm working on a project where an external camera provides a live feed of images (let's say 100 frames per second).

The main 3 functionalities of the project are:

play live feed
record live feed
show recorded feed

You are welcome to download the following standalone code (simply save it as "leak.html" and execute it), and see for yourself:

This example code takes a static image (of a chair) and modifies it randomly every frame (just to simulate my real camera feed).

For the first 1000 frames it shows the image, and stores the last 10 frames in a cyclic array, and from then on it just shows the 10 frames last recorded (in a loop).

(Obviously my real project is much more complicated, I just simplified it to illustrates the problem).

The question is - please suggest an alternative way (preferably - based on the provided source code) to perform the exact same functionality, without causing a memory leak in Chrome.

PS 1:

In chromium I found the following 2 related bugs, which were NOT really fixed (evidence - my code still leaks...):

"manipulating img src via javascript will generate a massive memory leak" - https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=36142
"Memory usage grows infinitely when changing img.src" - https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=114570

PS 2:

I'm fully aware of existing, similar questions in stackoverflow, and I made a lot of attempts, but none of them helped me solve my problem:

Some attempts I made, for example:

To make sure that the cache is not the cause, I work in Incognito mode of chrome, so cache is not relevant here.
Instead of setting bytes array as the src, I tried using blob URLs (but a similar leak still occurs):
- img.src = window.URL.createObjectURL(new Blob([bytes.buffer], {type : "image/jpeg"}));
Tried putting the image in an iframe, and reloading it every X frames: this partially helps, but it's practically impossible for me to use this 'workaround'.

* UPDATE 29/Jan *

I replaced the following lines:

var $tmpImage = $(image);
var clonedImage = $tmpImage.clone()[0];

With:

var clonedImage = new Image();
clonedImage.src = newImgSrc;

and the leak is the same.

=> So I am down to 'only' 1 bug that requires a workaround (in 2 places): leak when editing an image's src.

I had the same problem. The only workaround I found was to reduce the number of new Image() to use (ideally one):

function ImageLoader() {
  var img = new Image();
  var queue = [];
  var lock = false;
  var lastURL;
  var lastLoadOk;
  return { load: load };

  function load(url, callback, errorCallback) {
    if (lock) return queue.push(arguments);
    lock = true;
    if (lastURL === url) return lastLoadOk ? onload() : onerror();
    lastURL = url;
    img.onload = onload;
    img.onerror = onerror;
    img.src = url;

    function onload() {
      lastLoadOk = true;
      callback(img);
      oncomplete();
    }
    function onerror() {
      lastLoadOk = false;
      if (errorCallback) errorCallback(url);
      oncomplete();
    }
  }
  function oncomplete() {
    lock = false;
    if (queue.length) load.apply(null, queue.shift());
  }
}
var loader = new ImageLoader();
loader.load(url1, function(img) { // do something });
loader.load(url2, function(img) { // do something });

Note that images will be loaded in serie. If if want to load 2 images in parallel, you'll need to instantiate 2 ImageLoader.
