Basilisk memory leak with uBlock Origin and Privacy Badger

Unread post by tkadm30 » 2018-04-19, 08:01

Hi,

I would like to report a massive memory leak (> 700MB!) when using twitter.com and ublock origin and privacy badger extensions on Windows 7 (32 bits).

Basilisk version is:

[App]
Vendor=Moonchild Productions
Name=Basilisk
RemotingName=basilisk
Version=55.0.2018.03.21
BuildID=20180321093734
ID={ec8030f7-c20a-464f-9b0e-13a3a9e97384}

[Goanna]
MinVersion=4.0.2
MaxVersion=4.0.2

[XRE]
EnableProfileMigrator=1

The leak seems likely to originate from foreign javascript code being intercepted by uBlock Origin when using Twitter.

I would like to know how to debug this further.

Thank you.

Report it to the appropriate extension developers if it's an interop issue.

I have removed ublock origin extension and the problem is persisting when leaving the browser running for a while!

Will there be a new basilisk release soon?
