APAR status

Error description

• ISSUE
  Memory leak in IE 6/7 when using the "Timed Action" builder
  
  SYMPTOMS
  
  Upon creation and deployment of a model by using "Timed Action"
  builder, and subsequent rendering of the a web page displaying
  that model in a browser, an IE browser generates a memory leak
  on the machine the browser is running on.
  
  Note the problem is recreatable using the model provided from:
  
  http://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/pfwiki.nsf/dx/ibm-using-ajax-techniq
  ues
  
  When using the "TimedAction_DynamicChart.model" (from the AJAX
  samples), on the browser machine, memory seems to leak (about
  every second, 100-300kbytes of memory goes away when observing
  the Windows "Task Manager", "Performance" tab's "Physical
  Memory"
  value.
  
  This occurs in IE 6/7, but does not occur in Firefox (other
  browsers were not tested for this phenomena)
  
  Again, the memory leak occurs on the client/browser machine.
  
  ENVIRONMENT
  Server: WAS CE 1, or WAS 6.0.*
  Client: IE 6 or 7
  .
  RECREATION:
  From a browser on a machine other than the machine the server
  is on, execute the model. Using Windows "Task Manager"
  "Performance", you can observer the "Physical Memory"
  "Available" value, and can see it decrement at approximately
  200-300Kbytes per second.
  

Local fix

• The only workaround is to use different browser, which the
  customer does not wish to do.
