== Issues ==
Different browsers offer different ways of tracing memory leaks. As of writing, the core team's favourite browser is Google Chrome.

== Using Chrome ==
Addy Osmani has written extensively on finding memory leaks with Chrome. His often-quoted article "[http://addyosmani.com/blog/taming-the-unicorn-easing-javascript-memory-profiling-in-devtools/ Taming the Unicorn]" explains how to use the Chrome DevTools for this purpose.
