Memory leak when downloading many videos. about metube

I noticed memory growth while downloading videos. But when I switch the tab to background, chrome reclaims the memory.
Why not just close the tab after adding the video download queue?

I think this is a problem when angular handles websocket (downloading progress bar)

In my case, it reclaim the memory by killing the tab, i don't think closing the web UI is a solution for this problem, i personally like checking the status of all downloads. i do believe it has something to do with the progress bar, also what bothers me is i cant even run the memory debugger as it's crashes as well

You are correct. . . I use mobile notifications to let me know when a download succeeds or fails.
Dev tools - javascript vm instance memory doesn't seem to grow, it doesn't seem to work.
