Comment (by cypherpunks):

 Some ads from gocomics using scripts that constantly allocates and frees
 memory. It's platform specific memory leak like a regression from
 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=937878 or more likely a
 something new. If no leaks, it's still possible to do OOM remotely, alas
 nobody counts such DoS issues like real bugs.
